Great question! This pattern is intended to be our anchor fly on a European Nymphing rig, therefore it is heavily weight so that you can fish it on a tight line with no split-shot. If you want to learn more about the technique we're always happy to chat about it!
Again a very nice fly! Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
Really like this fly but why are you using such a large bead for a 10?

A live caddis casing is tapered from the butt to the head .NOT the way your tying it?????
It's a good thing the fish don't know we've been tying it wrong, because they eat the $h!t out of this fly!
