Foam Back Crawfish, Holsinger's Fly Shop

The Foam Back Crawfish is a pattern I had a lot of requests for a video of after posting a picture of it on Instagram. This Crawfish imitation has the action of a lipped crankbait when stripped through the water causing it to wiggle from side to side. Add to that the foam back on this fly causes it to rise back up or suspend in the water column depending on the water current you are fishing it in. You could change up the colors a little or take a marker to the back of the fly to add a little more definition if you like.

If you need any of the materials to tie this fly or would like to purchase the finished fly you can find them on our website or by licking on the link listed below in the Materials List. Thanks for watching. -Shawn
