The October caddis has been the hatch winner out on Rock Creek as of late, especially with the nymph stages, which have been pulling out some big fish. We have some good bead-head options here in the shop. For dry flies, use October caddis, mahoganies, chubby Chernobyls, stimulators, BWOs, parachute adams, purple hazes, elk hair caddis, and para wulffs. For sub surface patterns use micro stones, pheasant tails, Pat’s rubber legs, San Juan Worms, caddis pupae, double beaded stones and batman nymphs.
