CDC is one of those feathers I can’t imagine not having. It has this way of just making certain patterns BETTER. I was on a pretty major caddis hatch last night so my little elk hairs would have a tough time getting noticed. But the CDC elk hair has a way of drawing attention in a way that looks natural and attractive as opposed to unnatural and scary…and as if in cue, I was on the fish almost immediately.

Your video is very good, it's to bad , myself I can't hear you or understand half of what you are saying , please turn your mike up n talk a lil louder , I do want to learn, thank you.

Sorry for that. I'd recommend using headphones and turing up the volume on your device. Also check the audio out put settings for the TH-cam player. Sometimes that gets set lower on people's account. As for the French, not much I can do about that. Thanks for giving us a try. -H
