I have been tying today and figured I would share. I picked up a few materials from over seas to try out. I am really happy with them.
Here is a few dry. ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_191714_zpsfd35af00.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_185403_zpsc0e2469a.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_120133_zpsf1c38b0a.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_113306_zpsf1ddcdcc.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") Meh, nothing fancy. However, When they get wet..... ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_200623_zps30792d9d.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_200518_zps35d7ef68.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_200434_zps2e9b05d1.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_200340_zps79395739.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_121306_zps2556ef9e.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_120913_zpsaa870f94.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") Pretty cool, eh? Photo's are not the best I apologize. The translucency is really nice and gives you endless opportunities. Now this one I call the Stocky Killer ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_203007_zpsf59801bb.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") Here it is under a UV light in the water. I mean obviously this is how trout would see it. UV light FTW! ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_201817_zps53fbc3d1.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") Here are a few in the water. ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_191954_zps58af5778.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") ![Click to see original Image in a new window](javascript:CaricaFoto("http://i1048.photobucket.com/albums/s370/Sbecker8213/Salmon%20Fly/Caddis%20Larva/20130319_114623_zpsd75cbe61.jpg"); "Click to see original Image in a new window") As you can see the dubbing really holds some bubbles. I moved them around and popped the really big air bubbles they trapped, so I could take the picture. Anyway, I figured I would share. If you are interested in the materials, shoot me a PM. I would be happy to share.

You need to do use different hooks and the color of the beadheads are all wrong. No, they are nice ties in all seriousness. I have had some good days fishing patterns very similar to those.

Shane clearly stole this pattern. I know he could never have created this. Stockie killer, huh? Now that you mention it.

This is correct! However, for bonus points. What is the dubbing? It is mixed with cdc for the air bubble capabilities.

Looks a bit like this, which is a great fly.
