Elk Hair Caddis Dry Fly

Elk-Hair-Caddis-Dry-Fly

Elk hair caddis adults are mainly nocturnal and they come out in huge numbers in summer. On overcast days they are on the water all the time and make up a large part of a trout's diet. Trout are used to seeing them flutter across the water. So try dappling or skittereing it past a trout then pause. Do not worry if it sinks either! It is still working. Here in the Bay of Plenty they are in huge numbers. As summer progresses to autumn, they are falling into the water in record numbers all day long.

Stalking With a Dry Fly on the Rangitaiki River

While sight fishing from the raft is a lot of fun, there is nothing like stalking rainbow and brown trout in spring creeks and side streams. The slightest mistake means failure but the reward is more than worth it.

Cicada season is all but over on the Rangitaiki River. There are still a few around but the trout are focused on caddis flies. It happens the same way every season.
