Stacked Crazy Legs Spider
In this video you'll learn to tie a deadly bass fly and how to use your Whitlock leg pullers to good use when adding legs to the body of your bugs. Ken McEnerney came up with this fly for calm conditions where movement is more important than noise. Fish it slow, twitch it, let it sit and wait for the bass to suck it in. Having only the ruber tail and no skirt makes this pattern as straightforward as a stacked bug gets with only a couple of materials needed, once the tail is tied in you can concentrate on your hair work.

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.
