Cased Caddis

Hook: Mustad size #12

Head: Gold Bead (size 10/0)

Thread: Black 6/0

Hackle: Black, long

Thorax: Green floss

Abdomen: Brown rabbit dubbing

        Start by sliding on a bead all the way to the eye. Next  tie in the hackle, butt toward the hook bend, immediately behind the bead. Wind two turns of hackle and tie off, trim. Now trim off the hackle fibers so they're short and stiff. Length should be about 2 bead widths. Tie in the fluorescent yellow thread immediately behind the hackle. Wind back and forth over a space about one eye-width long to build up the thickness to just slightly smaller than the bead and tie off. Next you can add lead weight( optional ) and tie off thread (whip finish) and cement lead if used. Tie in thread again at the beginning of the hook bend, dub the thread with the brown rabbit dubbing, using both guard hairs and under fur, just as it comes from the hide. Dub up to yellow thread , and whip finish between the dubbing and the thread.
 Brush the dubbed abdomen with a piece of  velcro till it becomes bristled.
