{{start}}
A similar fly is also known as a "Bloody Mary" but I use the name 'Fiona' (Shrek's lady) as this fly is the same fly as the Shrek just different colored materials. Both are basically Woolly Buggers by design and just as the emerald green is a great option in the Shrek the red works well in combination with the black tail of the Fiona.{{end}}

It's one thing getting hits when fly fishing but its a completely different thing actually landing it. Playing and netting fish are two aspects of fly fishing that get less attention than they deserve. This post just glosses the surface but it may help.{{end}}

The uncased caddis have quite a few similarities. They often adopt a curved fetal position and when they are free swimming they are more elongated still with a curved back but with a lifted head. The have short tail like filaments, have bodies of around seven or eight segments that may have abdominal gills at each segment, have darker heads with two or three segments and have 3 or more sets of legs below the head or toward the front of the grub.{{end}}
