The CDC Tan flies well in riffles and matches the hatch perfectly. It’s lightweight and floats naturally. I’ve used it on several trout streams and caught several fish with it.
Emily Dyer –
Good match for caddisfly hatches. The tan color blends well with the water and stays on the surface. A reliable addition to my dry fly box.

Felt like a natural caddisfly when fished. Works well in early morning and late afternoon when the insects are active. Easy to tie and store.
