Sedge/caddis pupae.

[brownsville]

Been at the bench this morning in anticipation of a trip to the the Tanks this afternoon, and playing with some sedge patterns.


I've armed myself with some poor copies of Marks variety [MarkS that is], thanks again mate, but then went a bit freestyle.





Haven't got the hang of beads yet either.







Any comments welcome.

Gis'us a shout, & we'll sort 'em out for yer. Hope you have a good afternoon at the tanks.

Nice Mike, will be good to hear how they do.
This worked last night.

Tight lines,
Mark

Not bad sedges or what my fellow countrymen would call "caddises". What did you use for the antennae any way?

[brownsville]

They didn't work tonight, though nothing else did on my first blank of the season, but I did miss one on a black and claret hopper.

7 1/2 hours for one take.

FT, the antennae are pheasant tail.

John, I'll call you tomorrow.

Nice Mike. Think the lite brite adds a bit to the attraction. Still like to see some partridge on there for the effect of wing, antenna or legs.

Cheers,
Mark
