Dunno, but I'm guessing caddis.

I had cast over the rock and let it dead drift toward the overhang.  The line got tight, I set the hook and it felt like it was snagged.  Luckily I walked upstream and confirmed my suspicion that it wasn't snagged, instead this beautiful wild trout was just refusing to leave his hiding hole.
