Sporty Girl Foam can be purchased at just about every Claire’s in the country and with just about every mall in our nation having one of these stores this material should be fairly easy for you to find. It costs a few bucks a roll and comes in a few nice colors (Pink, Orange, Yellow and Black) along with a few useless ones but the black that is more of a charcoal matches the Grey Caddis fly and is useful for midge bodies and perhaps even Trico bodies. I like this material because it doesn’t hold water,
aides in flotation and is easy to use. So here is a simple tutorial for tying a simple fly that could be the most important fly in your box come April if you live around here.
The Sporty Grey Caddis:
- Hook: #18 Dry Fly
- Thread: Black 70 Deiner
- Body: Black Sporty Girl Foam
- Rib: Tying Thread
- Wing/Head: Grey Deer Hair
