Tying Instructions

Instructions

Note: 
Many years ago, John Barr innovated a pattern called the Zing Wing Caddis.



 



Over the years, I
have tied many variations of caddis using Swiss Straw and have found this to be
a great material in imitating many different insect wings.



 



Use silicon spray
floatant (comes in a spray mist bottle).



 



Another great
variation I tie is a pattern called the Electric  Caddis (size 18); using a dyed
lime green rabbit, & gray Swiss straw wing.  This is deadly on grayling,
brookies, and cutthroat. 

Dubbed olive rabbit fur.
