Whiskey Creek Fly Fishing

Wow, 31 days in a row of posting a new fly pattern. Its been fun, hope you’ve enjoyed it.  I have.

Today, we feature 2 patterns for the White Miller Caddis, a hatch that is seen on the Firehole in the fall.  Previous posts about the White Miller include the Carpet Caddis and the TK-421.

Both of these patterns are from Blue Ribbon Flies, one dry and one not so dry.
