More bouyant than an X Caddis but a bit more tedious to tie and find the right hackle for. Definitely catches fish

Favourite mayfly emerger pattern. The foam really helps it stay afloat and lets you work with heavier body materials, or is perfect when you don’t have poly yarn lol.

There is a lot of version for this fly. This is mine.

Very good nymph for rivers.

🖤 The Black Woolly Bugger

Made by @HackleandHerls

A timeless classic and one of the most versatile flies ever tied. Imitating everything from leeches and baitfish to stoneflies and nymphs, this pattern has earned its place in every angler’s box. The black variation is especially deadly in stained water, low light, and when fish are chasing silhouettes.

Whether you’re targeting trout, bass, or even steelhead, the Woolly Bugger’s pulsing marabou tail and flowing hackle bring it to life with every strip. It’s not just a fly—it’s a confidence pattern.

📌 Pro tip: Fish it deep with weight for big takes, or strip it shallow for aggressive strikes.

A natural, stealthy mayfly emerger on a size 16 klinkhamer hook. Great for fooling picky or heavily pressured trout. I use this tied on 12 to 18 inches behind a more visible dry.

Caddis emerger for spring when the grannom are hatching.

I always have a few in these colors for those finicky PMD hatches. Usually work pretty well in size 16 & 18 for me.

Works well as a general purpose attractor type nymph. Sinks well and is my favourite to use as a dropper nymph in southern Alberta. Tricky when you go smaller.

Top water fly with exceptional results in salt water esturaries. It isn't a popper, but is very sporadic when stripping. The head is foam and body hollow which holds an air pocket until your next cast. As far as I can tell there isn't another fly like this and I haven't come up with a name for it, so open for suggestions
