Bead Head Caddis
This simple fly was given to me by a Friend on
an outing to a Midlands Stillwater. He claimed that it was his
favorite Yellow fish Fly. I have since been extremely successful
fishing this fly in rivers and dams for both Yellow's and Trout.
My personal best rainbow 2.2 Kg was taken on this fly on still
waters.
