Tabou Caddis Emerger
Podcast episodes
Oftentimes, when I show the Tabou Caddis Emerger to fellow fly fishers, they comment on how simple it is and buggy looking, "Why didn't I think of that?!...that thing's gotta work!...how buggy...", they comment. Well, they hit the nail on the head with the simplistic bugginess concept, but I claim the pattern really isn't new, I think it's just a new way to tie an emerging caddis with some under-used and relatively unknown materials in my flytying material collection.
A note: This is a video file, so you won't get much fly-tying joy from listening to it - although the music is nice!

The GFF money box
… I have a small favor to ask.
Long story short
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
Long story longer
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.

I'm heading out to C
I'm heading out to Colorado in a week. While looking at fishing reports, one of the reccomended flies was the Tabou Caddis. I never heard of it. After a quick google ....and wha la there it is. Very cool fly. I love the way it looks. After looking through my desk and calling the local fly shops and finding no Bramha Hen skins, I decided to try the fly with my Hungarian Partrige pelt. It worked great!! It has a combination of pale cream, tan and grey. I can't wait to try them out.
