Bad Bass Crawdad

I created this fly to mimic a skirted jig. When I conventional fish for bass, one of my favorite and most productive techniques is flipping heavy cover with a skirted jig for bass. Attaching on a crawdad type plastic really adds to the bass catching ability. The fly is a little more difficult to tie, but its durable and will last through many fish strikes.

Hook: Gamakatsu SS15 size 1/0 (any long shank hook will do).
Flash: Black holographic flashabou and bronze krystal flash
Back Legs: Bug legs - dark brown and orange
Claws/head: Rabbit zonker strip
Skirt: barred rubber legs
Body: Super Flash Dubbing (copper color)

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
