Clouser Crayfish

1 comments

The Clouser Crayfish is a small and deadly crayfish pattern developed by Bob Clouser. The Clouser Crayfish can be fished on the dead drift or as a steamer. Most Crayfish patterns are tied specifically as streamers and this makes them very heavy. The Clouser Crayfish is different. It was actually designed to be fished on the dead drift, which makes it the perfect pattern for large river trout. The Clouser Crayfish is normally fished deep and bounced on the bottom. It imiates a helpless crayfish caught in the current, which is a easy snack for predatory fish. The Clouser Crayfish can be tied in Olive and Tan configurations. With the light olive being my favorite color!

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

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.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
