Alex, you gotta figure debris, etc. knocks/dislodges plenty of the little buggers naturally enough. Don't worry bout the so-called "impossibles." Cast it out there and have fun. You catch a fish, all the better. Peacock herl (use a lot) makes a great cased Caddis body/shell. Reinforce it with fine copper wire. "Cast your fate to the wind." mark..........

I haven't tried it yet, but plan too.  Try Scott Sanchez's Glass
House Caddis.  Scott has some very successful patterns.  The
pattern is on

I frequently see cased caddis in trout s stomachs (yes, I do eat a few fish) and have seen some very convincing imitations of this insect; however I have also read that trout scour the bottom, removing them directly from the rock making presentation nearly impossible.  How successful have people been with these cased caddis patterns?
