Cracklebacks! Come get your Cracklebacks!

With a little time on my hands this holiday season, I’ve been restocking the Etsy store. There is also a new listing available; the crackleback. This is a well known Missouri pattern and especially effective at Bennett Spring State Park. You can dead drift it, swing it, and even fish it like a streamer on sinking line. I’ll be honest, I don’t know what it is trying to imitate, but holy cow does it work. This was also the first pattern that I caught a trout on fishing it dry fly style so it has a special place in my heart.
