Great pattern davie you recently posted a pic for Decembers draw I was wondering if you could show us how you tied the other caddis pattern next to the pheasant tail nymphs

[@fabiorioscardoso3691]

Davie, mosca super clássica que não pode faltar na pesca de superfície, como tbm essa variação que você mostrou que é muito bem vinda.

[@chasselynch5733]

Been tying this style / pattern for years ,just a reversed smoke jumper

[@chasselynch5733]

I prefer rusty dun color thread

[@chasselynch5733]

But you mr.Davie are one of my tying idols😊

[@chasselynch5733]

Just watched your "what's in my pocket video" I thought I was the only one who still uses muclin lol

[@krallmi48]

I did enjoy it, Davie... thank you. If you were to tye this as a Grannom, what wing and body material changes would you make? If you were to do a Grannom and use foam instead of CDC for the balloon, what color foam would you see as 'right'? Mike
