Red Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly

from the Turrall Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly Collection.

The Red Caddis, also known as the Red Sedge, is a classic trout fly with a rich history in fly fishing. Originating in the UK, this fly mimics the adult caddisfly, a staple in a trout's diet. Its design features a red body, often crafted from dubbing or floss, paired with a palmered hackle and a wing made from deer hair or similar materials. This combination creates a lifelike silhouette and movement on the water's surface, enticing trout to strike.
Known for its effectiveness during caddisfly hatches, the Red Caddis is a must-have in any angler's fly box. Its buoyant design ensures it stays afloat, making it ideal for both still and moving waters. Whether you're fishing in a serene lake or a fast-flowing river, the Red Caddis promises to attract attention and deliver results..

Red Caddis / Sedge Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Red Caddis/Sedge trout fishing fly is most effective when used during the evening hatch, particularly in late spring and summer. To maximise its effectiveness, present the fly upstream and allow it to drift naturally with the current, mimicking the natural movement of emerging caddisflies. Use a floating line and a long leader to ensure a delicate presentation. Employ a dead-drift technique, occasionally adding subtle twitches to imitate a struggling insect. For retrieves, a slow hand-twist or figure-of-eight retrieve can be effective, especially when targeting trout feeding just below the surface.

Key Seasons - when is this

Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly

most effective?

The Red Caddis/Sedge fly is most effective during late spring to early autumn, particularly from May to September. This period aligns with the peak caddis and sedge hatches, making it an ideal time for trout fishing. The fly works best in the evening when adult caddisflies are most active, especially during warm, overcast days or just after a rain shower when humidity is high. Look for areas with slow-moving water or near the banks where caddisflies tend to congregate. During these conditions, the Red Caddis/Sedge fly can effectively mimic the natural insects, enticing trout to strike.

How does the Turrall Red Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Red Caddis, or Sedge, fly is designed to mimic the adult stage of the caddisfly, a crucial part of a trout's diet. As caddisflies emerge from their pupal stage, they become highly vulnerable, skimming the water's surface to dry their wings before taking flight. This stage is a prime target for trout, as the insects are abundant and easy to catch. The Red Caddis fly, with its buoyant body and fluttering hackle, effectively imitates the movement and appearance of these emerging adults, enticing trout to strike. Its vibrant red hue adds visibility, making it an irresistible option for hungry fish.
