The Baetis Emerger Cripple Fly is a confidence pattern. I carry this in sizes 16-20, and occasionally you'll even find a size 22 in my box. Baetis are some of the most prolific insects on trout streams across the country, and this pattern does a great job of matching many of them. When you see trout sipping something on the surface but don't know exactly what it is, that's when it's time to tie on a Baetis Emerger Cripple Fly!
