- I've been meaning to make this video for awhile now. This is a fly that has been working really well for me over the last few years. I'm not that surprised considering it's a combination of Lance Egan's Corn Fed Caddis and Devin Olsen's Front End Loader Caddis. Those are two really amazing patterns. This is just my take on those killer patterns.

A nice variation to Devins Front End Loader which I have decided to use as my go-to pattern this season. The addition of CDC instead of the hackle tied on a rubber band looks to be a good alternative and one I will try also on those Brown Trout down-under in NZ. Thanks for the tie.
I don’t really think you can go wrong with any variation of Devins pattern really :)
Nice work. You took the best of both patterns and made a fly that's easier to tie and is obviously as effective as either one.
I just got a new dry fly box. Looks like a couple of rows are spoken for now.
yeah, basically if you smash the two flies together you get this pattern :)
Good tie. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I have fished this very pattern, both with the cdc wing and a deer hair wing. They are both very effective. Great video
Can't go wrong with it
Great looking fly!! Love the dry droppers!! Thanks for sharing!!
👍🏻
I used to use mono as a ribbing material, but saw Devin use thread instead, as it is more durable than mono. I gave it a shot and am happy with it. Now all my blowtorches, etc, use thread for reinforcement instead of mono. Mono * can * take a beating from trout teeth.
This is a good looking fly and quite a bit easier to tie than the two it is derived from. I’ll definitely be tying some up! 💥🥊
Yeah it can get beat up, I use fluorocarbon for the mono so it holds up pretty well to the teeth but nothings perfect :)
@@FlyingTies Agreed. There’s no perfect solution and eventually they’ll get trashed. Nice tie and I look forward to fishing it this spring here in the northeast!
@@geoffreymiller5422 I’m sure it will kill :)
Good stuff!
Glad you enjoyed it
That looks fishy - gonna try to do a version with the colors I have here. Thanks for the clear demonstration! Well done & nice fish!
Thanks! I’m sure it will work well for you
Nice. Given the cdc fibres, do you use floatant on this fly?
Yup, sure do!
@@FlyingTies thanks
Would you be able to fish a 3mm bead under this fly or would it pull it under. Nice tie🙏
Yeah, 3mm no problem. You can do 3.5mm if it's flat water or not a lot of break. Thanks for watching
Do you ever fish unweighted nymphs on a dropper tag when nymphing, not dry dropper fishing? I'm curious about giving fish the option of a fly without a beadhead when nymphing two flies but wonder if maybe there would be an issue with contact with an unweighted fly. Also I wonder about fishing super small zebra midges on the dropper tag for this reason.
Couple things. I do use unweighted nymphs based on the situation, if the fish are high in the water column or if the water isn’t they deep you would want to fish a light fly. There are of course other reasons, but that’s the main one for me.
Think of John Barr's Hopper, Copper, Dropper rig where he put a Copper John and a Barr's Emerger below the dry. I use a 2.0mm beaded or glass bead head soft hackle below a traditional partridge soft hackle that is about 12 - 18 inches below my dry. I even put this under something as small as Charlie Craven's Mole Fly or Mole Midge. Been a killer this year.
Hey it would be really helpful if you put the recipe in the information/description or give it at the BEGINNING of your video. Thanks.
Thanks for the feedback 👍🏻
Великолепная мушка

not a pencil but a match stick clump of deer hair. dude.
🙄
Yer camera is way too far from the fly.
The ‘gap’ is actually the ‘gape’ in standard hook nomenclature.
