    Default Crowley Lake, CA fall fly patterns?

    Anyone have some favorite fall patterns for Crowley Lake (California) that they'd be willing to share?

    Especially interested in any perch patterns, along with sizes, and best color combinations. In prettty good shape for chironomids, but short on streamer patterns that would match the Sacramento perch fry.

    Thanks in advance.

    One of my favorites is an olive Bird's Nest nymph tied with a couple of strands of crystal flash mixed into the collar. I have caught a lot of crowly fish with the Bird's Nest in sizes 12 through 8. Another great pattern is Tom Loe's Punk Perch.

    Tailing: Will give the Punk Perch a try. Thanks.

    Planet: Yeah, should have mentioned that I've already looked at Steve's site. Was hoping for something more than what a google search will uncover.
