Last Chance Cripple Baetis
The Last Chance Cripple series by Rene Harrop is very effective on selective trout. This pattern can be tied to match a variety of mayfly species. We use the Baetis version with great success. Learn to tie this pattern in the video at the top of the page. Materials needed are listed below.

Rene Harrop's fly patterns were developed with an experienced eye for detail. Proven on the Henry's Fork, one of the most demanding trout fisheries in the country.
The Last Chance Cripple series are great patterns for selective fish. We use this Baetis version on our local tailwater with great success.
Tie in sizes 16-22 for a Baetis (aka Blue Winged Olive) Cripple.
The pattern is easily adapted to imitate other mayfly species.
Thanks for watching!
