CDC Sedge

I heard a rumour last night that the Great Red Sedge [The Big Sedge] has started to make its annual appearance at Hillend. This surprises me as I thought the recent weather would have delayed their arrival. Anyway I Tied a couple of these up tonight to fool the fish. Last year I had decent success with a balloon caddis when the sedge was out but for a few years before that I had been using cdc sedges in various variations such as this. Hope to get up to the Loch tomorrow evening to try this wee one out.

I really like that, a fine looking Sedge, Is that a soft hackle up front OJ ?
