 Fly of the Week: BH Caddis soft hackle

Hook: SE3, 16 -12
Bead: Match to hook size, Gold
Thread: Olive
Tail: Pheasant tail
** Under body: Oive Ice dub
Over Body: The rest of the Pheasant tail
Rib: Silver Wire, Small
Thorax: Olive Ice Dub,
Wing: Partridge

** Tie in Pheasant tail near bend, pull back pheasant over tips and tie in with a few turns.
When you dub the body up to thorax, pull Pheasant tail forward, tie in and then rib with wire.

I like using this pattern searching and during a major hatch of caddis, Try tying this pattern
in a darker color such as peacock, It's great to swing this Caddis with another!
