Little Sister Caddis (Cheumatopsyche )
The Little Sister Sedge, Cheumatopsyche species, gets its name because in
essence, it is just a smallversion of the Hydropsyche and Ceratopsyche species.
These are the second or at least, the third most important caddisfly in the nation.
They hatch in large quantities in most places where they exist. There are several
different species of them.
These little caddisflies are especially plentiful in tailwaters. They are net spinners
and anywhere the water has a large amount of plankton, they are usually very
plentiful. They exist in other types of water, even freestone streams and spring
creeks.
These caddisflies hatch later in the season after most of their big sisters have
hatched or from about the first of May until the end of July depending on the
species and the area of the country. They do exist in all parts of the United
States and Canada by the way.
You fish all three stages very similar to the way you fish the Ceratopsyche or
Hydropsyche hatches The only difference in the genera is the colors and size of
the flies. The Little Sister hatch is a little more difficult to fish than the spotted
sedges or cinnamon caddis because they are so small. You cannot watch your
small imitation as well as the larger flies.
