Crippler Gray Drake

[cyama]

Yes it works!! The new and improved Crippler Gray Drake.

Shuck is zion and coq de leon. Gray Trouthunter dubbing and dark dun hackle over dark deer hair.

Tiemco 100 size 12

Better than Pautzkes salmon eggs...

Is this for the March Brown on the Lower Yuba River?


Looks good.....

The fly above is the Gray Drake for the Yuba. It is a pretty big bug and you can't mistake that fly. The March brown fly is an easy switch though. Just use a size 14 hook and March Brown dubbing from Trouthunter (tan to light brown). Switch up colors for the zion in the shuck and colors for the thorax.

Nice ! When you say "zion", do you mean zelon ?

There are several different names based on manufacturer. Z-lon is the same as Zelon. Polyprolene yarn.
