Callibaetis Cripple

This cripple pattern imitates a Callibaetis mayfly that failed to fully emerge from its shuck — stuck half in, half out of the surface film. Stillwater trout key on these helpless insects, making the cripple pattern the top producer during Callibaetis hatches on lakes and ponds.

Fishing tips

Essential for lake fishing during Callibaetis hatches. Fish with a very slow hand-twist retrieve or dead drift on the surface near weed beds.
