This is my favorite pattern for them:

My guess would also be caddis pupae, especially because you're seeing it in the morning. Try a pattern like this:

I like to stand near the top of the riffle and fish on a tight line to the tail out. The goal being that you will have the pupae rise naturally in the feeding zone at the end of the riffle or pool. It's often on that rise at the end that you get takes. |
