October Caddis Larva
In rivers, Caddis larvae can be divided into three basic types; case builders, net spinners and free-living roamers. All caddis larvae are subject to periodic behavioral drift cycles. This is how populations disperse themselves. Both Free-living and net spinning caddis larvae can produce a silken strand very much like spider web. To move down stream they will hook their line to a rock and then rappel themselves down stream. They are often dangling in the current for long periods. During these periods entire populations can be exposed to trout which will key on them exclusively. Caddis larva can be extremely vulnerable to catastrophic drift caused by high water, which can sweep them from the bottom.

Hare's Ear Black Nymph
Perhaps the most recognized, fished, and proven nymph ever tied. The hare’s ear nymph will attract fish even when there is no hatch on. It’s a nymph whose “bugginess” entices fish into striking. Yet, it’s also a nymph that imitates almost any natural nymph. Try it in runs and riffles, or fish it in still waters, too. Stripping this nymph back toward you on a lake or pond can get trout on the rod.
Sizes: 12, 14, 16

Elk Hair Caddis Black
To understand the design of the Elk Hair Caddis fly you need to know a little of the natural history of the caddis. When the caddis hatch the emergent adult tries to swim as fast as it can to the safety of the bank. In this mad dash for survival it creates a 'V' shaped wake a bit like a small speed boat. The trout are on the look out for this give away sign of fast food on the move and home in on these flies with some spectacular takes

C.F.O. Hummer Skwala Stone fly
Skwala or Spring Stone
(One of the Yakima River WA Stoneflies)
The Skwala Stone emergence is the first important hatch of the season. Adults begin to appear during the last week or two of February and fish begin to key on them by the first or second week of March. The hatch lasts well into April and overlaps March Brown and BWO hatches. Skwala generally emerge at night, crawling onto rocks close to the shore. Mating often occurs as soon as the female frees herself from the nymphal shuck.
 Skwala adults become important as trout food when the females return to the river to lay eggs, usually in the late afternoon and evening.
Nymphs prefer fast, rocky runs and riffles and migrate to slower water to emerge. Emergence takes place on shore.
Note: Aslo makes a good carpenter ant pattern.
Size: 8, 10

C. F. O. Golden Stone Fly
Golden Stone Fly
(One of the Yakima River WA Stoneflies)
Much less important on the Yakima than Skwala americana and Claassenia sabulosa. Can be important locally and their numbers seem to be growing, particularly pacifica. The size of the emergence varies greatly from year to year. Pacifica is more common than californica. Emergence usually occurs in the late afternoon and evening. Egg laying activity is generally in the evening. Nymphs prefer fast, rocky runs and riffles and migrate to slower water to emerge. Emergence takes place on shore.
