Winter Caddis Larva - Beadhead

Originally designed to be a winter nymph, this pattern can be used in a slew of situations. Fish it as an attractor any time of the year, the bigger size performs best in off-colored water which can be frequently found this time of year. Fish during the summer as a caddis pupa pattern, which we have found to be effective on the Deschutes River where yellow caddis pupa are prominent. It's yellow color and copper bead tie this pattern together nicely, making it a great imitation in most situations where grubs and yellow larva are present.
