I think this was because the tail significantly aids in the flotation of the fly.

I know the fish aren&#39;t asking this question before they eat it, but caddis flies don&#39;t have tails.....does it maybe represent the wing of the caddis? Or am I maybe just over thinking things...Mr. Q[email protected]
