Green Sedge Dry Fly

Fishing Tips

Many fly fishermen are unaware that the sedge (caddis) is the third most important food source for trout in our interior lakes coming in at 13% of the total food consumed. The daytime feeding samples show that 8% of the trout's daytime feed is on sedges. For fish feeding in the evening or at night the feeding samples rise to 19% of the total food intake. In terms of a relative ranking this actually places sedges as the second most important evening or night time food source. Only shrimp are more frequently consumed during the evening hours.
