EP Flies Ep Trigger Point Fibers Cinnamon Caddis for Precise Mayfly Bodies

Overview

EP Trigger Point Fibers Cinnamon Caddis are engineered to mirror a broad array of mayflies found worldwide. The slender wings and body can be formed into ultra thin, aerodynamic profiles even on a size 24 hook, helping flies ride close to the water surface with a natural silhouette. The Cinnamon Caddis color adds a warm, lifelike hue that works across various light conditions and water colors, making emergent and surface activity feel more approachable to the fish in many situations.

These fibers feel light and silky to the touch, yet they are surprisingly durable. The translucent fibers maintain their shape through a drift, so you can create slim bodies without bulk. A key design feature is their natural floating tendency, which keeps flies in the water column rather than sinking, aligning with the way many mayfly patterns present in real hatches.

Key benefits

• Blended colors to match the hatch across diverse waters
• Translucent very fine diameter fibers for subtle, lifelike bodies
• 8 inch length fibers with about 5 g per pack for versatile use
• Extremely durable synthetic material that resists fraying and wear
• Does not absorb water, helping to preserve buoyancy and casting performance
• Natural floating property that keeps flies in their ideal presentation window
• No floatant necessary for many mayfly patterns
• Designed to support mayflies emergents, crippled spinners, midges, and caddis

Customization and use cases

• Choose the Cinnamon Caddis blend as a base or blend your own colors to match local hatches
• Marking pen friendly for additional color variation without soaking the material
• Ideal for fine bodies on small hooks and thin profile flies down to size 24
• Great for creating slender bodies on emergent and crippled patterns, plus midge and caddis blends

How to fish and handle

Build slim, natural looking bodies that sit in the water column with minimal bulk. Experiment with color blends to reflect hatch timing on your water and taper the body for a realistic silhouette. The fibers are easy to cast, resist water absorption, and hold their shape through a drift, enhancing your presentation without adding weight or bulk.

Keep in mind that these fibers offer possibilities rather than guarantees. They are a tool to help you replicate hatch patterns and improve presentation under varying light and water conditions.
