Steve said, “The fly was designed with the need of a baby Lobster pattern to fish for Northeast Stripers but can easily be fished as a crayfish pattern. The pattern can be downsized or upsized very easily. The weight on this one is actually XL dumbbell and 5 straight pieces of .035 along the bottom of the shank as the keel. Like a triangle not wraps.”
