Whiskey Creek Fly Fishing

I bought this fly at The Fly Shop in Redding. Its call the Rocker Roller, a pattern matching the larva stage of the October Caddis.

The October Caddis is a case making caddis, forming a shell around its larva with small stones from the stream.

The Rocker Roller is formed by spinning multiple colors of rubber in a dubbing loop, then trimming the rubber to shape. There are simpler and more complex methods to create a cased caddis pattern, but this looks just right.
