Very nicely tied dry fly. While I've been tying for sixty years there are some flies that are just too complicated to make it worth my time to tie. I was very pleased with the quality.

The Last chance Cripple is characterized by an abdomen that duplicates the form and color of the nymph.The thorax, wings, and hackle represent a partially emerged dun in shape and coloration. The buoyant CDC wings provide excellent flotation and visibility when fished on choppy water or during low light conditions. These features also cause it to be a perfect indicator fly when a corresponding nymph is suspended from the hook bend.
