Sedgehog Olive Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly

from the Turrall Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly Collection.

The Sedgehog Olive Caddis, a staple in the fly angler's arsenal, is renowned for its effectiveness in mimicking adult caddisflies. Originating from the innovative fly-tying techniques of the Scottish Highlands, this fly has become a favourite among trout enthusiasts. Its buoyant deer hair body and hackle create a lifelike silhouette, making it irresistible to surface-feeding trout.
Key features include its olive hue, which blends seamlessly with natural surroundings, and its ability to float high, even in turbulent waters. Perfect for both still and running waters, the Sedgehog Olive Caddis is a must-have for any serious angler seeking success on the water..

Sedgehog Olive Caddis / Sedge Trout Fishing Fly

- Fishing Techniques.
The Sedgehog Olive Caddis is best used during caddis hatches, particularly in the evening. To maximise effectiveness, present the fly with a floating line and a long leader. Cast upstream or across the current, allowing the fly to drift naturally. Use a dead-drift presentation initially, then employ a twitching retrieve to mimic the erratic movement of an emerging caddis. This can trigger aggressive strikes from trout. In still waters, use a slow figure-of-eight retrieve to imitate a struggling insect. Adjust tactics based on water conditions and trout activity for optimal results.

Key Seasons - when is this

Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly

most effective?
The Sedgehog Olive Caddis is most effective during late spring to early autumn, particularly from May to September. This period aligns with the peak caddisfly hatches, making it an ideal time to use this fly. During these months, focus on warm, overcast days when caddisflies are most active. The fly excels in both rivers and still waters, especially in the evenings when trout are feeding on the surface. Look for conditions with a gentle breeze, which can help mimic the natural drift of caddisflies, increasing your chances of a successful catch.

How does the Turrall Sedgehog Olive Caddis / Sedge Trout Fly imitate a key stage in a fish's diet?
The Sedgehog Olive Caddis 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 fly imitates the fluttering and buoyant nature of the adult caddis, with its bushy hackles and buoyant body. Trout target these emerging insects due to their abundance and ease of capture, making them an irresistible meal. The Sedgehog Olive Caddis effectively replicates this stage, enticing trout with its lifelike movement and appearance.
