Caddis, EC Tan

The Tan EC Caddis imitates adult tan-bodied caddisflies, which are among the most prolific and widespread caddis hatches in North America. The elk hair wing helps it ride high and withstand rough water, ideal for riffles and runs.

History:
This is the most classic form of the Elk Hair Caddis, invented by Al Troth in 1957. It revolutionized dry fly fishing with its simplicity and effectiveness. The tan version is especially popular on Western rivers during the summer and early fall.
