Hi Lindsay, I like these type of nymphs, this GREENWELL UV Cruncher is just the job. As an aside a badger cape is black core with white tips, just me being pedantic mate, keep up the good work. Cheers Jimf
Pheasant tail is such a useful body material! There are so many variations of Sawyer’s original fly now and they all catch trout! This pattern will be a welcome addition to my box! Thanks and tight lines!
Crunchers are part of the natural progression and evolution of both the pheasant tail nymph and nymphs in general. Like with cormorants. They can cover from buzzers to pin fry. When used correctly they work. So they both deserve their place as one of the top ten all round great Stillwater flies

Hi Jim, I always get that wrong don't know why I only have a handful of capes.....lol.
I like that and will tie up a few, will be having my first go with a washing line set-up next week 🤞🤞
Good luck! Let me know how you get on.
Haven't used this fly before but tomorrow I will tie a few up and prepare for a dynamite day on the river. Much appreciated.
Hope you enjoy it!

Yes they are, I wouldn't be without a nice pheasant tail in my kit.
Lovely fly.. im gonna try this one tonight, thank you
Have fun!
I suspect this will certainly be a killer Lyndsay. It looks just the part and I’ll be giving it a try. Thank you for another one dude.
Very welcome pal.
Great looking fly Lindsay, will try to tie something comparable here in BC, Canada!!
Please do and let me know how it swims ;-)
I love this fly🇺🇸
Thanks Shawn.
Nice little bit for sure. However, does look like a ‘killer’. Thx Lindsey
You are very welcome Lee.

Definitely one of the greats Mick.
Cracking fly!!! Lindsay where are you getting your hen capes from they look a bit better quality than a standard one?
Hi Phil, I think that one came from Cookshill.
Would be nice with pearl or silver micro glint in the thorax too Lindsay 👍
Sounds good 👍
I don't tie anymore but like to watch. You are getting short of glue would a touch of varnish not do the same job?
Yes, varnish would work a treat.
Natural Pheasant tail, I found a source that sells tails to train hunting dogs, I like the combination..,
Thanks Lee, it works really well.
Love the tying. Don't like the music in the background though.
Hi Colin, is it too loud?
Just unnecessary in my humble opinion Lindsay.
Do you recomend this cruncher for the river on may fly time ?
I dare say it would work but it is primarily a Stillwater pattern.
@@lindsayiflyfish thank you for your answer
Tidy wee pattern sir
Thanks Alastair, hope you are keeping well pal.
Thats not a badger cape badger is white with a black centre,thats a greenwell or furnace cape.
Thanks for the correction Bob.
My style of fly Lindsay nice & sparse 🏴🏴🐟🎣🙂
Mine too!
