From In The Riffle:
“The Clouser Crayfish is a small and deadly crayfish pattern developed by Bob Clouser. The Clouser Crayfish can be fished on the dead drift or as a steamer. Most Crayfish patterns are tied specifically as streamers and this makes them very heavy. The Clouser Crayfish is different. It was actually designed to be fished on the dead drift, which makes it the perfect pattern for large river trout. The Clouser Crayfish is normally fished deep and bounced on the bottom. It imitates a helpless crayfish caught in the current, which is a easy snack for predatory fish. The Clouser Crayfish can be tied in Olive and Tan configurations.”
