| Tying Instructions |
| This pattern is similar to a traditional Southern Applachian fly called the "yellow palmer". It imitates the large, pale orange caddis that emerge in fall and golden brown mayflies as well. It's simple to tie, a good floater, and a favorite in the Great Smokey Mountain National Park. It should work well throughout autumn. |
