White Death

The White Death is a South African stillwater pattern, first tied in the 1980s in Natal by Robin Fick. It was designed to imitate caddis flies returning to lay eggs by diving down to lay. A full white marabou wing pulses with the slightest movement, and a white chenille body with a small amount of flash gives it a soft, buggy profile.
