Looking for a "One Fly" pattern?, September 23, 2008

"This is the kind of pattern that does it all. Do you ever get sucked into a "One Fly" competition? Well if you do...you may want to think about this one. It's deadly."

Who said swinging was out of style???, July 5, 2008
By: corkedrod from Muskoka

"This fly has got to be my favorite to use on moving water. I am tied to still water and do use this fly with success as a straight wet, but I love to swing this fly through the current allowing the flow to do the work. I dont know what it is, the fish just seem to hammer the fly. This is an amazing pattern which I seem to only ever fish wet even though I know its a great dry.."

Insane Crane, July 5, 2008
By: WildFly from Toronto, Ontario

"Wow! yet another fantastic pattern from Ian James on the Orvis site, and cheap too! I have fished this fly countless times on the Grand river with great success for Browns. Ian's Dry flies always out fish any other dries I have ever used and am often left short after handing out flies to frustrated anglers.

This is the only crane fly I carry in my box of dries. Beautiful pattern, but be sure to have different sizes."
