Caddis Hatch Tactics That Catch More Fish | Ep. 177
About this episode
The caddis hatch sometimes get overlooked in all our excitement over mayflies and stoneflies, especially early in the season.
But caddis hatches stay consistent throughout the summer, and they only become more important for trout as the season stretches on. Plus, the first big caddis hatch of the year can be an absolute blast if you hit it right.
This week on Untangled, we'll take a detailed look at the caddis hatch: when these bugs start getting active, their lifecycle and behavior, and the flies we recommend for a successful day out on the water.
