I am going to see how they fish here the next time I get out. I like to hit the surface first, but if I hit some deeper pools I will tie these on. Thank you for the compliments on my tying. They are easier to tie than you think. I am going to be spending some time checking out some creeks to make sure we can make the most of your time out here. Thanks again.
Thanks Benny. Let me know if it works. I’m thinking this winter I may be spending a little bit of time targeting some carp in our canals. We’ll have to see if it works. Thanks again.
I will be curious as to how they cast (leader twist?).
They look very similar to a locally-tied pattern we used to keep in the shop. The tail on those was made with plastic (similar to what might be used for a scud back) and the claws were some kind of quill. Those worked and I bet yours will too.
oh, beautiful flies. I am sure one or the other brown will fall for those.
Very nice! Looks like they should work for those browns.
Thanks guys for the kind comments. I am interested to see how they work. I should get a chance to see how the fish here shortly. Thanks again.

Those will work great. I saw lots of crayfish in Tonto this summer.
Yeah, unfortunately those Rim creeks are chocked with crayfish, but I’ll capitalize on the situation. I’ll see how they work.

Wow Ben. I think your tying skills are really good. Looks like a complicated little pattern. We gonna be fishing these in 2 weeks?

Sweet looking crayfish Ben. I think I could use a pattern like this for carp as well.
