Tying an Olive X Caddis with Martyn White
The X-caddis is one of the best dry caddis patterns, tied in various sizes and colours it can imitate almost any of the species found in rivers. It floats well and is quite visible making it ideal for the evening. Trout and grayling will eat it for an emerger or egg layer making it usefu throughout a hatch.
