Sisevac Caddis Revisited

Always fun to tie...and works in mysterious ways. I believe the success of this fly is tied to the light refraction through the emu feather barbules. They move almost like CDC, but do need a good bath in a quality desiccant powder prior to use (like Tiemco Shimazaki Fly Shake). The powder will make the fly ooze the "moth factor." It is a flat water fly, best fished dead drift, or with tiny twitches.
