FAQs

What is CdC?

CdC stands for Cul de Canard, which refers to the feathers from the preen gland area of a duck. These feathers are naturally buoyant and ideal for fly tying.

What size tippet should I use?

The tippet size will depend on the river, conditions, and fish you are targeting. Generally, use 4X-6X tippet for this size 14 fly.

How do I maintain the fly's buoyancy?

After each use, dry the fly. Apply floatant as needed, especially if the fly appears to be sinking.

Can I use this fly in still water?

Yes, it can be effective in still water, especially when imitating emerging insects.

Why use barbless hooks?

Barbless hooks are designed to make catch and release easier and less harmful to the fish.

How often should I replace the fly?

Replace the fly when the CdC feathers become excessively damaged or when the hook point is no longer sharp.

Troubleshooting

Fly is not floating as expected.

Ensure the fly is clean and dry. Apply a small amount of fly floatant.

Difficulty hooking fish.

Adjust your hook setting technique to account for the barbless hook. A more assertive but controlled hook set is often needed.
