BreadCrust Caddis fly pattern - Caddis emerger image

Description

The Breadcrust, originating in the 1940s by Rudy Sentiwany, stands as one of the most effective caddis imitations. Initially crafted for the trout streams of the Pocono Mountains, this versatile pattern can mimic various caddis life stages, including free-living caddis, net spinners, and cased caddis. Notably, the grizzly soft hackle collar contributes to a lifelike representation, simulating dangling legs or emerging wings on the caddis nymph

Pro Tip

The Breadcrust pattern is one of the best Caddis Nymphs to have in your fly box.
