Stone Creek Goddard Caddis

Goddard Caddis

A classic and highly buoyant pattern, the Goddard Caddis is designed to closely imitate adult caddisflies. Tied with a spun deer hair body and brown hackle, this fly creates a full, buggy profile that trout readily recognize during active caddis hatches.

The naturally buoyant deer hair construction allows the Goddard Caddis to ride exceptionally high on the water, making it particularly effective in fast currents, riffles, and broken water where visibility and floatation are essential. Its durable design withstands repeated strikes and rough water conditions, making it a dependable choice throughout the season.

A longtime favorite among Western anglers, the Goddard Caddis remains one of the most effective adult caddis imitations for rivers, streams, and freestone water.
