Signature Tyer Pat Weiss' Hi-Top Caddis certainly won't be the prettiest caddis dry fly you see this week, but this pattern was designed to serve a very specific purpose. While the Hi-top caddis works quite well as a stand-alone dry fly, it was designed to be fished as part of a long-distance dry-dropper setup where the fly wouldn't be traveling fast or shed water easily. Its purpose was to deliver a small Firefly or BP perdigon properly at a distance, while being subtle enough to not disturb technical fish. This requires a fly that floats well without excess bulk or weight and doesn’t push too much air during the cast. This is why it features a thread body and very sparse synthetic wing. The Hi-Top Caddis works quite well on a euro dry-dropper setup, or can be tied even more sparsely and fished as a single dry. You can tie this fly in any color combination you want to match caddis in your local rivers.

Pat Weiss has been euro nymphing for trout for many, many years. As an avid competition angler and constant innovator, he was fishing and testing euro nymphing methods before they were popular in the US—and before the materials were available. As part of that, Pat's been tying, testing, modifying and thinking about euro nymph patterns for years. Pat has also been a member of Fly Fishing Team USA for 12 years. A lifelong angler and tier, he's honed his skills on technical wild trout in Pennsylvania where he lives. Pat's a Signature Tyer for us at Fulling Mill, and he has some extremely popular patterns. His flies have no frills and are purpose built. They are durable fish catching machines.
