This week, Kyle is back in the studio whipping up one buggy beast of a caddis imitation—introducing the Squatch Caddis - Wild, Hairy, and Irresistible! Like its legendary namesake, this fly is a master of disguise, lurking in the currents before ambushing unsuspecting trout. Built with buggy euro nymph dub, it dances under the water with an almost supernatural presence—a lot like Bigfoot himself! Whether you're hunting trophy fish or just looking to stir up some river monsters, the Squatch Caddis is one pattern you don’t want to leave home without.
