The Parachute Adams is a timeless classic and is considered one of the most effective all-round dry flies that every fly fisher should have in their box. It successfully imitates a variety of hatched or emerging mayflies (duns/emergers), making it universally applicable almost all year round and during most hatches. Thanks to the special parachute tie, the fly sits extremely realistically and low in the water surface film, which convinces even suspicious fish. At the same time, the highly visible wing post guarantees excellent spotting and bite detection for the fly fisher.
The Traun Caddis is a classic caddis fly version: the sedge with closed wings. This picture shows both newly hatched sedges, when they are still unable to fly, and females laying eggs. The adult sedges live for several days or weeks and return to the water from the shore vegetation when all the conditions for laying eggs are met. After mating, the females fly upstream to compensate for the downstream drift of the eggs (compensatory flight). Some species then climb into the water on the side facing away from the current, e.g. from stones, to lay their egg balls. Many sedges also lay their eggs in the open current at dusk. They run and hop conspicuously over the water surface. In between, the flies repeatedly take breaks, during which they drift downstream with their wings folded. Spawning and egg-laying always provoke a violent ascent. The tying method and material - the translucent patterned Sedge Wing wings and the CDC thorax surrounded by a few long fibers - give the MW-Caddis a deceptively realistic silhouette without reducing its usability in the slightest. The pattern can be thrown without twisting and has excellent buoyancy. This means that this CDC sedge can be offered without any problems according to the behavior of the prototypes: Turning and furrowing violently and drifting calmly in between, as “Caddis at rest”. This is most effective with a long leader tip when servicing across and then downstream.Text and pattern by Gerhard Laible
The Adams is a true classic among dry flies and should not be missing in any fly box. Available in many different sizes, it is one of the most effective flies for trout and grayling.
Whenever caddis flies hatch in the open water, the roundish, usually respectably sized emergers and crawlers trigger intense fish activity. The CDC Yellowhead Caddis Pupa efficiently represents this emergence and crawling phase. The conspicuous, thick head of the pattern mimics the gas filling in the pupa skin that carries the ascender to the surface. The special attraction that often emanates from the yellow parts of a dry fly has certainly been observed by many. My personal experience points unequivocally in this direction. I am not only convinced that yellow is indispensable at times, but that its appeal can be enhanced by emphasizing it. The thick yellow head in combination with the roundish body dubbed in my “integral technique”, i.e. from peacock and CDC fibers, results in a pattern that successfully imitates hatching Sedges. The yellow also makes the fly highly visible in the dim light of late evening caddis hatches. The CDC Yellowhead is fished either upstream in the normal dry fly manner or across the stream and then furrowed. When fished in this way, it is particularly effective if it is pulled slightly under water and guided with jerky movements.Text by pro tyer Gerhard Laible.

Nev-R-Sink - it's just better!
Nev-R-Sink has become a floatant legend in its own time. That it could be improved upon wasn't considered possible. Scientists didn't give up hope and carried on the extensive research. The result is Nev-R-Sink II. Your fly floats higher in the surface and even the finest CDC feathers aren't glued together.
