About the Peeping Caddis Trout Fly
I saw Mr Oliver Edwards tie this fly some years ago, the only difference is the body, the original was deer hair, I changed this to a less buoyant material which I thought would be better as the fly is designed to fish along the bottom of the river, other than this small change, why mess around with a good looking and effective pattern

A great fly. If you made it I would buy it.

If we get a lot of demand we can get some made up.
We are not associated with the perth flybox, however this company was previously flybox.info which sold full scale images on CDs of these flies, and we have expanded to offer most of them for sale. - Posted by David Radley - Fish4Flies Team on 02/11/2007
