From Caddis Fly Shop:
“In this video Jay ties up another delicious trout streamer. This fly really illustrates how using a variety of similar colored materials can add subtle accents and several layers of texture. It can be cast, stripped, and swung for a variety of critters including Trout, Bull trout, and Bass!”

Caddis Dyret
Andy Saunders shows us how to tie a Caddis Dyret. This pattern is used often for grayling and trout. The word Dyret means “The animal” in Danish, from my understanding.
