Southern Outdoorsman Guide Service's MORE TACKLE - the angler's outlet

Crystal River Dry Fly-Muddler - Crystal River is a modern thinking Fly Company totally committed to producing up-to-date flies, using the very latest materials available, on hooks that have stood the test of time, such as TIEMCO, DAIHACHI and KAMASAN. Cheaper alternatives in hooks or materials are never considered and quality control is consistent and paramount during production. Altogether this makes flies which can be fished with total confidence. If you appreciate quality fly tackle you probably own an expensive outfit - why accept anything less at the business end, where it really counts. Crystal River produces flies for all aspects of fly-fishing.

The Muddler Fly was created in 1937 by Don Gapen while fishing the world famous Nipigon River in Ontario, Canada. Today it is the world's leading trout fly, sold in as many countries as there are sporting fish that swim. It's a fly created to represent the sculpin minnow, but imitates a large variety of fish food. Fish feeding on grasshoppers, nymphs, larvae, surface floating flys, sculpins, crawfish and minnows all fall victim to Gapen's creation. It is a fly which can be fished dry, wet, semi-submerged, or keep as a darting minnow. Selecting Muddler size for the fish you seek is best done by using 12, 10, and 8 for insect and larvae life, while bigger hook sizes better represent minnows, crawfish, and grasshoppers. Weighted Muddlers should be used to represent minnows. They have a body wrapped with lead which sinks the fly instantly, an action that best represents baitfish, such as sculpins down near the bottom.
