About the Sand Caddis Trout Fly
The 'Sand Caddis' is a very lifelike way of tying and imitating a cased caddis. Extremely effective when trundled along the bottom.
Expert Tip:
By changing the sand to stick or fine gravel or any other material you find at the bottom of the river, stream or brook you fish; you can create an effective customised caddis larva.
