The Brown Flag Sedge is a superb, traditional adult-caddis dry fly with a brown wing and body. Its roof-shaped outline represents a sedge resting on the water or returning to lay eggs.
Fish it through river glides, riffles and bankside seams during caddis activity. Start with a drag-free drift, then try a short lift or skate when the naturals are moving across the surface. Its balanced profile gives it the appeal to turn interest into a solid take.
