Description

The Last Chance Cripple was designed by renowned fly tier René Harrop for fishing the challenging waters of the Henry's Fork in Idaho. This pattern imitates a mayfly struggling to emerge, with its body suspended below the surface film and wings partially extended, making it an easy target for trout.
