Description
The Green Juicy Caddis Pupa is a fly pattern designed to imitate the caddisfly in its pupal stage, a critical phase when these insects are most vulnerable and appealing to trout. The use of latex for the body creates a realistic, segmented appearance that closely resembles the natural caddis pupa. This pattern is particularly effective during caddis hatches, enticing trout that are keyed in on emerging insects.
Pro Tip
Upstream Mend Manipulation: After casting upstream, execute a series of gentle mends to create subtle movements in the fly. This action mimics the natural ascent of a caddis pupa towards the surface, enticing trout to strike.
