Perfect Fly 's Short-horned Sedge Flies for Fly Fishing

The Short Horned Sedge is a rather small caddisfly that can
hatch in huge quantities in trout streams from the Eastern to
Western United States. They are also called "Tiny Black
Caddsi". They are Glossosoma species. Most of the species
hatch in the mornings for just about the entire season. At
times the hatches will rival any caddisfly and the trout will feed
on them with ease. The females deposit their eggs in the late
afternoon and evenings. Even though it is a small insect, the
Short Horned Sedge can be an important caddisfly to imitate.
