How to Tie the Foam Front End Loader Caddis

How to Tie the Foam Front End Loader Caddis

This video is the first in a series of tying tutorials for flies I added to my boxes in 2023. The Foam Front End Loader Caddis substitutes several materials used in the original Front End Loader Caddis and adds a foam back in order to increase buoyancy. This fly floats just a bit better and holds up a tungsten bead nymph a little easier than the original pattern. I’ve still caught plenty of fish on it as well, so it isn’t just an indicator fly. This fly is also available from our shop at this link https://tacticalflyfisher.com/products/foam-front-end-loader-caddis?_pos=1&_sid=a598f7a74&_ss=r

You can find all of the materials for this fly with links to buy them in the blog post linked below.
