Member's Comments:
This is a very basic fly which will take pickerel, bass, trout and crappie. Tie in tail with a generous amount of Krystal Flash, tying tail material along top of shank to build body base. Tie rubber legs across top of shank with figures 8 of thread - 2 strands to make 4 legs. Tie off thread with whip finish. Apply EZ body sparingly to form body from tail to hook eye. The black version works well on overcast days.
