Goddard Caddis Size 8
John Goodard created this fly. It has proven to be one of the best caddis imitations, especially for stillwater. I fish it now for the “Traveling Sedge,” AKA “Motorboat Caddis” at Manzanita Lake. In the last couple of years, I have seen more and more Traveling Caddis at Manzanita Lake in late June. The fish love them. I tie this on nine-foot 4x tapered leaders and cast to make a splash, then strip them slowly. Push water with the fly to generate the action of the real sedge. Trout love them.
