Madison Guide Cripple


Quick to tie hi-vis cripple/emerger pattern. 

Hook: emerger 14-18
Thread: to match (cream/brown shown)
Tail: Zelon or hair (Himalayan goat fur shown)
Abdomen: peacock herl or dubbed (caddis green & march brown shown)
Wing: Poly yarn tied cripple style
Hackle: to match (grizzly)

Notes:
- trim wing butt to end of thorax. 
- cut notch out of bottom of hackle so fly rides low in the water.
