try tying the Griffith's Gnat with a fluorescent orange tag about a third the way down into the hook bend. :thumbup:

Thanks, will do. I usually use red thread to tie my Griffith's and so they have a bit of a "hot head".
 
The only fly I've heard of is caddisfly larvae (don't know fly fishing name, but is my favorite insect), but I love the learning involved here. I was told my maternal grandfather tied flies (and forged, and raced cars, and hunted and...), but have absolutely no experience with flyfishing. Thanks for the education.
 
"Elk Hair Caddis"

An excellent fly. Out West it seems caddis hatches can be sporadic and there are many opportunities to use this fly. One of the first flies I ever fished and one of the first I learned to tie.

I don't use hackle on the body as much now, trout don't seem to mind. I'll substitute deer hair or even calf hair on smaller sizes. But this is a good example of an Elk-hair Caddis.

(Somebody already guessed Elk Hair Caddis, so you can make another guess if you like.)

Some awesome guesses!!! Rotte may have to narrow it down:D Dry fly or weighted? I was going to guess the Parachute Adams as well. I'm getting a craving to do some fly fishing!!!

I'll have to check Bass Pro for those bee-flies...
