How Caddis Conquered The Eyewear World Caddis, best known for their cheeky and stylish reading glasses, has been one of the most impressive success stories in…

A smart #caddis also turned up in the moth trap this morning - Halesus radiatus, new for me. West Dorset, UK.

Caddisflies, maybe Cinnamon Sedge of the several Limnephilus sp.

Caddis, still, on the ‘Stone! I wouldn’t hesitate to tie on a size 16 tan caddis dry behind your Chubby (or small hopper). Just a suggestion…

The distinctive silhouette of Sericostoma personatum - the Welshman’s Button.

Maybe stop by Sweetwater for some #16 tan caddis dries if you’re fishing the Yellowstone in the near future… Just a suggestion!

Dear Hair Caddis in case you’re interested

#flytying #stilllearning #fishfood #dryflies #tyingdesk #caddis

I think the box is ready for the weekend- most will be lost the trees #dryflies #flyfishing #flyfishinglife #caddis #sedge #emergers #cdc #dearhair #elkhair #fFly #flytying

Four more #caddis species in the garden in the last few nights: Tinodes waeneri, Molanna angustata, Mystacides longicornis and Oecetis ochracea (probably). #TeamMoth #MothTrapBycatch #Trichoptera

Now up to four #caddis species for the VC 61 (East Yorkshire) garden, the latest being a rather smart Glyphotaelius pellucidus. #TeamMoth #MothTrapBycatch #Trichoptera

I thought I'd have a go at IDing #caddis as moths aren't challenging enough : / I think the first three species are Limnephilus marmoratus, L. auricula and Stenophylax permistus (gen. det.), but am happy to be corrected. Maybe also L. auricula for the last? #teammoth #Trichoptera

Olive X caddis, size 14

Tried an X caddis for the first time. Olive with elk hair and tan shuck. Size 14. #caddis #flytying #flyfishing

Was up early yesterday to help empty traps at a local site. Not many moths, but the ones that were there were cracking! Also got three #caddis species: Rhyacophila dorsalis, Glyphotaelius pellucidus, and Oxyethira flavicornis, and a #SextonBeetle Nicrophorus humator

I don't often get excited about caddis-flies, but this Mottled Sedge male (Glyphotaelius pellucidus) is a bit of a stunner. To light, W Dorset, UK 30/4. #caddis #Trichoptera

The Mother’s Day Caddis When caddisflies land on the water to lay eggs, more often than not, they face upstream and into the current.

This week’s Flylab newsletter is headed to an inbox near you.

Deeter writes about the Mother’s Day Caddis hatch: “When it comes to finding the pattern trout are going to want to eat, profile is the number one factor, followed closely by size and then maybe color, in that order…”

Caseless caddis have 3 pairs of legs visible and you can usually find them lashing around in the sample tray. 💦

Cased caddis can carry cases made of stones, sand grains, plant material or shells 💦
