  • Attractor Cripple Pattern — The Royal Wulff Cripple is a modern adaptation of the legendary Royal Wulff dry fly, originally created by Lee Wulff in the 1930s as a durable, high-floating evolution of the Royal Coachman; this cripple version, popularized by guides like Rowan Nyman, adds an emerging/crippled element with a trailing shuck for unmatched effectiveness on selective trout
  • Deadly Mayfly & Caddis Imitation — Mimics crippled or emerging mayfly duns and caddis pupae stuck in the surface film during hatches, with the classic royal body (peacock herl, red floss) providing attractor flash while the shuck and low-riding profile trigger confident eats from trout keying on vulnerable insects
  • Premium High-Floating Construction — Hand-tied with quality materials including a Z-lon or synthetic shuck for realism, dense hackle for buoyancy, and visible wing for easy tracking; floats high through choppy water and remains durable after multiple aggressive strikes
  • Versatile Attractor for Rough & Clear Waters — Excels as a searching or hatch-matching fly on fast rivers, mountain streams, and big western waters like the Madison or Gallatin; deadly for brown, rainbow, brook, and cutthroat trout during mayfly or caddis emergences in spring through fall.
  • Must-Have in Any Dry Fly Box — One of the most effective cripple patterns ever fished, from Argentina's Rio Chimehuin to U.S. trout streams; combines the timeless appeal of the Royal Wulff with helpless cripple action for consistent rises when standard dries fail or during tough, selective feeding periods
