Morrish's October Caddis is a highly regarded fly pattern designed by Ken Morrish to mimic the large, bright orange Dicosmoecus caddisflies that hatch during the fall. Valued for its realistic silhouette and excellent flotation, it serves as a go-to dry fly for trout, bass, and even steelhead preparing for winter.

Because October Caddis are among the last major large bugs of the angling season, trout target them aggressively. Anglers find success using this pattern with the following methods:

Bank Lines and Cover: Blind-cast the dry fly tightly against banks featuring overhanging grasses, logs, or dense vegetation where mature adults cling to streamside brush.

Skating for Steelhead: The broad foam and hair head pushes water efficiently, making it an excellent choice to skate across glassy tailouts to induce aggressive surface strikes from steelhead.
