    I’m just getting back into fly fishing after a near 30 year hiatus. This is the very crawfish fly pattern I used to tie. So glad I found this. I still have several in my summer bass fly box. I used to NAIL bass with this pattern. Hoping I do it all again when I head back out in the water. As a side note, a lot has changed in 30 years. I learned this pattern from a senior fly fisherman friend back when I was 19 years old or so and it was one I kept going back to. Easy and it works. Now, there’s this thing called the internet and on it you have RUclips where you can find EVERYTHING you’d ever need. LOL Thanks again for the refresher.
