Kami Flies Dry Fly - Daddy Longleg

Caddis or sedge flies can be found along most streams, and therefore they are a very important food source for trout and grayling. Thus, the Elkhair Caddis shouldn’t be missing in your fly box. It floats extremely well due to its wings made of hollow elk or deer hair. Therefore, it can also be used in fast currents. Further, it imitates countless species due to its universal silhouette and natural colours, which makes it a great choice in many situations.

This modern version of the famous Daddy Longleg is a very realistic imitation of a crane fly for targeting species such as trout or grayling. It has a very tempting appearance due to its long legs and a bulky body. Since it is made of a foam material, it floats extremely well. Thus, you can fish it “dead drift” or you can skate it across the surface in a very seductive way. Therefore, it’s hardly surprising that this fly is known for activating the fish – especially on a warm summer evening!
