A high-floating caddis-style dry in a bright Yellow Sally colorway. This fly’s buoyant wing and tight, palmered hackle throw a crisp silhouette that stays visible in riffles and pocket water while matching light-yellow adults on warm afternoons.

How to fish it
Dead-drift along seams and pocket edges, then add short skitters or micro-twitches over riffles to trigger slashing eats. For a dry-dropper, tie 16–24" of 5X off the bend to a small nymph or pupa. Shorten leaders (7.5–9 ft) in tight, broken water.
Care
Rinse after use and air-dry before boxing. Dress wing and hackle with gel/paste; revive with a powder/shake desiccant after a dunk or fish.
