Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 I was watching some BIG sedge come off the water the other day and i was wondering what patterns would be the best? Im looking for both nymphs and emergers. Thanks Jeremy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

headscan Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Have you tried standard caddis patterns and tie them to match size and colour of the sedges? Some October caddis patterns might work too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rundleff Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 How big of a "Fro" are you looking for? I use something similar to this - [Green Pupa], No fro, but it should work for ya. The Octo Caddis should be right on too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 420FLYFISHIN Posted July 13, 2009 Share Posted July 13, 2009 i tied the under water form and trolled it 3 or 4 inches below the surface and got broken of on 6 lb line when the tank came up and hit it. Alls i saw was 2 flashes and gone. I will post a pic pf the pattern tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDoctor Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 The Mikulak sedge pattern is a good one. 52 Buick for the nymph. Another good Sedge is the Tom Thumb, a bit smaller but makes a nice wake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
