G & H Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly

from the Turrall G & H Sedge Trout Fly Collection.

The G & H Caddis, also known as the Sedge Trout Fly, is a classic dry fly pattern designed to mimic adult caddisflies, a staple in trout diets. Created by John Goddard and Cliff Henry in the 1960s, this fly has become a favourite among anglers for its effectiveness and versatility. Its buoyant deer hair body and hackle provide excellent floatation, making it ideal for fast-flowing streams and rivers.
Key features include its realistic silhouette and movement on the water, which entice even the most selective trout. The G & H Caddis is a must-have in any angler's fly box, renowned for its ability to trigger aggressive strikes from trout..

G & H Caddis / Sedge Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The G & H Caddis/Sedge is best fished using a dry fly technique, imitating adult caddisflies skimming the water surface. Cast upstream or across the current, allowing the fly to drift naturally with minimal drag. Use a floating line and a tapered leader to enhance presentation.
For retrieves, employ a short, erratic strip to mimic the natural movement of a caddisfly. In faster waters, a dead drift followed by a twitching motion can trigger strikes. Fish during evening hatches for maximum effectiveness, targeting areas with overhanging vegetation or riffles where caddisflies are abundant.

Key Seasons - when is this

G & H Sedge Trout Fly

most effective?
The G & H Caddis/Sedge fly is most effective during late spring to early autumn, aligning with the peak caddisfly hatches. In the UK, this typically spans from May to September. The fly excels during warm evenings when adult caddisflies are most active, skimming the water's surface.
Ideal conditions include overcast days with a slight breeze, which encourages caddis activity and keeps trout feeding near the surface. During these periods, the G & H Caddis/Sedge can be particularly enticing, mimicking the natural movement and appearance of emerging or egg-laying caddisflies.

How does the Turrall G & H Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The G & H Caddis, also known as the Sedge, is a trout fishing fly that effectively imitates the adult stage of the caddisfly, a crucial component of a fish's diet. This fly mimics the caddisfly during its emergence stage when it transitions from water to air. At this point, the caddisfly is vulnerable, making it an attractive target for trout. The G & H Caddis's buoyant design and realistic appearance on the water's surface entice fish to strike, as they instinctively recognise it as an easy meal. This fly's effectiveness lies in its ability to replicate the natural movement and silhouette of the emerging caddisfly.
