Rotten Cotton Candy

Notes:

(1)  This is a good early/late spring or late winter pattern here is\n California.   I believe glossoma caddis may cause a trigger a reaction in trout to pink as pinkish hues are commonly found on the pupa in the Sierras. It may also be in response to eggs at the tail end of the spawn.
(2)  Has seen decent results as a last resort fly in late evenings.
