CDC Dry Flies
CDC trout flies are absolutely brilliant patterns that have revolutionized modern fly fishing, especially for dry fly and emerger fishing!
What is CDC?
CDC stands for "Cul de Canard" - French for "duck's bottom." It refers to the special feathers found around a duck's preen gland that are naturally waterproofed with oils. These feathers have incredible properties that make them perfect for fly tying.
CDC Properties:
- Natural Floatation: Pre-treated with natural oils, so they float beautifully without floatant
- Lifelike Movement: The fibers move naturally in the water, creating incredible realism
- Versatile: Can be used for wings, hackle, or body materials
- Delicate Appearance: Creates very natural, subtle fly patterns
- Perfect for imitating insects stuck in the surface film
- CDC creates that "half-in, half-out" appearance
- Deadly during hatches when trout are selective
