Fly Tying 27 Feb 2019 – e egg laying Elk Hair Caddis.

Peter assumed the task of leading.
The Fly was the egg laying Elk Hair Caddis. It is a simple fly to tie and can be tied from size 20 to size 10. In past years it has been responsible for many hook ups for Peter (he cannot suggest that it was primarily the egg laying tie that attracted the fish or whether an ordinary would have done the job).
The following materials are required for the tying of the Egg Laying EHC:

Thread : Uni thread 8/0 Brown
