{{+1}}Hooks – holding mechanics (ceteris parabus){{-1}}
{{start}}
So what you can conclude from these basic observations is that the lower the eye of the hook to the bend of the hook then the higher around the bend of the hook the fish will 'hang'. This observations has significant implications for the fly tier and the fly fisher.{{end}}

Fish the tadpole fly either on the drop or the lift in shallow water around detritus matter. This action mimics the action of a tadpole coming to the surface to breath and then returning to its cover and is a prime time for trout to strike.{{end}}

{{start}}
This generic representation of a caddis nymph tied on a Czech nymph type hook is one of my favourites. A good buggy looking fly that also has a subtle hot spot emerging wing of UV material. It's such a good fly I carry it in a number of different colour options.{{end}}
