Buck Caddis – Orange

Small, striking, and annoyingly effective — the Buck Caddis in orange is like a neon billboard for hungry trout. This little bullet-head caddis mimics the fall caddis so convincingly that fish will forget their dinner plans and swipe right.

Who it’s for: anglers who enjoy turning calm streams into snack bars for trout. Perfect for fall pickups, creek hoppers, and anyone practicing their triumphant fly-slap selfie. AXG Life — Life, Adventure-Ready.

Key Features & Design

• Pattern: Bullet head caddis with a compact profile that rides hook-point up and resists snagging.
• Color: Bright orange body to represent the “fall caddis” that trout key on.
• Sizes: Available in #16 and #18 — small but persuasive.
• Use: Designed to imitate late-season caddis activity; great for targeting selective trout.

Performance & Benefits

This fly does the heavy lifting so you don’t have to. The bullet head helps it ride naturally in the film and punch through surface tension, presenting the orange body in a lifelike silhouette that trout love to hate (or love to eat). In plain terms: it increases hookups during the fall hatch and reduces frustrating stick-ups on rocks and weed.

Whether you’re nymph-sighted and precise or the kind who casts with bravado and good intentions, the Buck Caddis turns stuck weekends into hero stories. Built for quiet riffles and questionable decisions after sundown — it performs when timing, stealth, and a little luck matter.

How to fish it

• Fish during the fall caddis hatch for best results.
• Use #16 for slightly larger feedings and #18 when trout get suspicious.
• Works great under an indicator or as a topwater attractor in shallow runs.
