Product benefits and highlights

The Devaux SEDGES ELK5 flies stand out for their unmatched realism, perfectly reproducing the silhouette, colors and surface behavior of a true caddisfly. Thanks to careful material selection—especially elk hair known for its hydrophobic properties—the flies offer long-lasting buoyancy in all conditions. The meticulous hand-tying ensures robustness and reliability, while the natural presentation entices even the wariest fish to strike. Finally, the ergonomic design promotes accurate casts and a secure hook hold, reducing the risk of lost fish.

Usage tips and recommended setups

To maximize the potential of the SEDGES ELK5, favor a fine leader and lengths suited to the distance from the fish. A weighted head is not necessary; flotation is naturally provided by the elk hair. The ideal technique is to fish a natural dead drift on the surface, imitating the erratic movement of an adult caddisfly. In current seams, lightly grease the wings to prolong flotation. Strikes should be sweeping and precise to avoid pull-outs. For trout rivers, consider alternating with other imitations during heavy hatch periods.
