Hemingway Caddis
Hemingway Caddis
A realistic and highly effective dry fly pattern, the Hemingway Caddis was originally designed by Mike Lawson and named after Jack Hemingway, son of Ernest Hemingway. Known for its slim profile and natural appearance, this pattern closely imitates adult caddisflies on the water.
Built with peacock herl and a hackled underbody, the Hemingway Caddis offers subtle flash and natural movement that trout find difficult to resist. Its low-profile wing and realistic silhouette make it especially effective during active caddis hatches and selective feeding situations.
A respected Western trout pattern for decades, the Hemingway Caddis excels on rivers, spring creeks, and tailwaters where trout become selective during heavy caddis activity.
