Caddis Emerger

[@jameshenderson3238]

Your videos are the best in explanations and reasons of fly tying .

[@troutbum61]

Not only was the narration/direction of this Caddis Emerger pattern great, but the actual tier in the video was very precise. Thank you very much for another well produced video.

[@sirmegallot3276]

the open spiral preparation wrap just blew my mind...

[@1984mattr]

You guys have the best fly tying videos on the net!

[@b1rodriguez]

I find it comforting that you also call them fuzzies. Great stuff! Keep the videos coming.

[@toomanyfingusernames]

I just love all your videos! Thanks so much for taking the time to edit these nicely and to share your knowledge with us.

[@tightlinevideo]

It's my pleasure, glad you like them.

This pattern is so effective and I often use it as a tag fly off my anchor fly while nymphing or swinging through riffles on the Delaware. I like to tie in a double CDC loop wing on the pattern.

[@5adamjb]

That's a fact. Tightlinevideos are the best!

[@tightlinevideo]

I personally like the white for the outer sheath and rely on the inner core to produce the color that shines through. That said, I know olive, tan, light yellow also work well for the outer sheath or bubble.

[@tightlinevideo]

Yes, absolutely.

[@MikeBlezien]

another great pattern and video. always learn something new when I watch your videos. I just picked up a 200yd skein of NZ 100% wool yarn, can make some nice indicators with it too. Mike

[@tightlinevideo]

Yep, same technique but here you pull back to inflate and on the egg you pull forward. I do think it's the look that both have, an inner core surrounded by a translucent outer layer that make them so effective.

[@tightlinevideo]

Sure, antron, zelon, Aunt Lydia's rug yarn, even fibers of antron dubbing.

[@Metal-Fish-Video]

as always, very nice video. thanks

[@edgarmcbee2474]

It is a awesome fly

[@willyboyw.5771]

ButterBelly!! Love it!!

[@FlyandFin]

Nice one Tim.

[@bmwflyfisher]

Great video. Interesting approach to the Caddis Emerger - I like it. Will give it a try tonight and on the river tomorrow.

[@almonde2001]

Cool fly, the wool body is similar in look and technique of the antron egg

[@tightlinevideo]

Thanks!

[@tightlinevideo]

Thread color really doesn't matter. You're right olive Flymaster really does look more brown than olive.

[@justexactlyperfectbrothersband]

Have you tried Yorkshire wool? i think its more water repellent than New Zealand wool, we measure our rainfall like pressure only in liters per square inch rather than pounds. I haven't tried wool from Lake District sheep yet, it should be good, those little beauties are semi-aquatic!

[@davekeady2957]

Can I still use Zelon/Antron if I don't have the wool on hand?

[@hopper1aoa15]

Nice Guinness Glass.

[@jennyminny5113]

Cool fly

[@8626John]

Do you always use white material for the shuck? Would olive or tan also be effective? Thanks for the videos.

[@tocayofishing6538]

Exelente

[@JohanPieterse-y5p]

Hi What can I use if I can not find partridge

[@8626John]

Nice video. Where do you get the wool?

[@MiniSlusken]

Hi, Can you give me some tips on trout flies?

[@LGxfanboy]

great pattern!can i tie it in difrent colors ? sorry my english

[@jimslade]

What size ranges do you find the most practical

[@MarceloJost]

You say you use olive thread, but I think this is kind of light brown or rusty brown.

[@8626John]

Never mind. You explained in the video and I missed it the first time.

[@petemelnick2249]

I loathe dubbing and used peacock herl instead of dub for the body. Either way, she is a beaut. Thank you for sharing Tim.

[@jeffporter4894]

Instead of dubbing a head< I have tied this using a black plastic bead instead. You're welcome. 😊

[@bobbilly7241]

Could I use CDC?

[@tightlinevideo]

For which part?

[@kNAZGL]

tightlinevideo I am assuming for the bubble instead of the wool. I had the same question and will try it out tonight. Great video.
