My Crayfish

Here is a crayfish (crawdad) that I came up with. I was after one that had lots of flash that would act as an attracter as well as a bait image.

Hook-Mustad C49S #6
Thread-Danville’s Olive Flat wax
Tail-(mouth parts) Gold Flashabou
Claws-Natural rabbit zonker strip
Body-Olive Catus Chenille
Hackle-Rust Saddle hackle
Shellback-Rust Flashback
Rib-Fine gold wire

Wooly, I’ve never tied or fished crayfish patterns, but this one looks good to me!!
