Description
CDC Adult Caddis
The CDC Adult Caddis fly pattern is a popular fishing fly used by fly fishermen to imitate adult caddisflies on the water’s surface. CDC stands for “cul de canard”. This is French for “duck’s bottom.” It refers to a type of feather that is used to create the fly’s wings.
The fly is effective when fished in rivers and streams. And particularly during caddisfly hatches in the late afternoon and early evening. When casting the fly, aim for areas where you see rising fish or in riffles and runs where fish are likely to be feeding on insects on the surface.
When fishing with CDC Adult Caddis, you can target various freshwater fish species that feed on caddisflies. Common catches include:
- Trout: Trout, especially brown trout and rainbow trout, are known to feed on caddisflies. The fly can be effective in enticing trout in rivers and streams.
- Grayling: Grayling are another species that commonly feed on caddisflies. The CDC Adult Caddis can be used when targeting grayling in clear, cold streams.
- Panfish: Panfish such as bluegill and sunfish may also be attracted to the fly, particularly in ponds and slow-moving waters.
It’s essential to consider the specific caddisfly species in the area you are fishing, as well as the preferences of the target fish. Matching the size and color of the CDC Adult Caddis to the natural caddisflies present can increase your chances of success.
