Description

The Smith Caddis is a micro topwater plug measuring 24mm and weighing 1.0g, designed for close-range trout that are hesitant to commit to larger surface lures. Its slim, flattened body houses two 2mm rattle balls and uses a horizontal-eye 2-hook layout to concentrate buoyancy around the hook points for a more reliable hook-up.

Built for long-pause presentations and gentle tip-action twitches, the Caddis excels when trout are sitting close but reluctant to strike, rewarding a slow, deliberate retrieve rather than fast, aggressive sweeps.

Information

The swimming action

The Caddis sits flush on the surface and barely moves on its own; its two internal rattle balls chime softly on the slightest rod movement, and long pauses let it sit still and visible rather than swim in the usual sense.

When to throw it

Aimed at close-range trout that are hesitant to commit to a bigger surface lure, so it earns its place in shallow, clear, slow-moving water where fish can inspect a bait at length before striking.

How to work it

Work it with long pauses between gentle tip-action twitches rather than a fast, aggressive sweep; slow and deliberate suits this lure far better than an active retrieve.

The setup it likes

Best fished on a soft-tip stream rod, a small 1000-2000 reel, 2-4 lb main line and a fine fluorocarbon leader to keep the presentation delicate.
