This Foam Pupa is a great, quite realistic, and fairly easy to tie pattern that works great for trout, grayling and rainbows when caddis is hatching in both streams and lakes. It floats really well which allows you to see it on the surface quite easily. Fish it free drifting or skating on the surface and just vary size and color to match the hatch of your favorite waters.
