Florian Drag CDC Caddis

The Florian Drag CDC Sedge is one of the most effective adult caddis fly imitations on the market, with its wing made from CDC.

A real magnet for trout and grayling.

It represents a wide range of clear to medium dark adult caddis species from limestone to freestone rivers and streams.

It is widely appreciated wherever there are hatches of caddisflies on the calmest parts of streams or on lakes.

This is truly the essential sedge imitation.

In sizes #16 and #18, it is the ideal pattern for fooling fish looking for a bite close to the edge in the middle of the day in shaded areas.

In sizes #10, #12 and #14, it is a basic pattern for evening rise, dragged or not, and in fast water.

Handcrafted in France.

My choice as a professional guide specializing trout and grayling fishing in rivers.

Tax included

It has often proven to be a miracle pattern during my guiding trips, whether for wild brown trout (in Brittany and elsewhere) or grayling

Carefully crafted by professional fly tier Florian from the finest natural materials sourced from his own farm:
• Natural CDC feathers for the wings
• Brown thread for the body
• Dubbing made from hare’ear fur for the collar
• Brown thread for the head
• Tied on a chemically sharpened carbon hook with superior point

Tips for use: If I could only have 3 or 4 flies from Florian in my box, this would undoubtedly be one of my essentials.

With its wing made from duck Uropygial gland greasy feathers and its hare’s ear dubbing collar, it fishes low while remaining highly visible.

In size #10, #12 and #14, it is a basic sedge for evening hatch, either dragged or not, and exploring the edge currents and all areas immediately downstream from calmer zones, where larvae live.

An excellent fly for fishing the water and spots, on the edges or in front of rocks.

In sizes #16 and #18, it is the ideal model for fooling fish on the lookout for a bite close to the edges in the middle of the day in shaded areas, especially in summer when water levels drop and fishing conditions become difficult.

Recommended tippet diameters: ø 0.20 to ø 0.10 mm depending on the size of the fly.

Available hook sizes: #10, #12, #14, #16 & #18
