Gavin Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Looks like a Peerless and some bamboo too. Hard to top one like that on a dry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishinwrench Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Nice! The X-Caddis is a hero fly, I love that thing. It ain't half bad "nymphed" either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jgentile Posted February 18, 2014 Author Members Share Posted February 18, 2014 Very nice! 17"? I never measured, good guess I was figuring 16-18 Looks like a Peerless and some bamboo too. Hard to top one like that on a dry. I wish it were a Peerless, unfortunately the reel is a Chinese knock off. The rod however is one sweet piece of fiberglass. (three pieces actually, lol) Haven't made the jump to boo yet. Nice! The X-Caddis is a hero fly, I love that thing. It ain't half bad "nymphed" either. Easy to tie, nice profile on the water. I never nymphed it, but sometimes I tie them with a shorter wing and no floatant as a cripple/emerger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
