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,” which is French for “duck’s bottom,” and refers to a type of feather that is used to create the fly’s wings.

The CDC Adult Caddis fly is effective when fished in rivers and streams, 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.
