The Creature
The Creature is tied with dust mop/bath mat material. “Mop Flies” as they are generically called are loved by some anglers and shunned by others. This love-hate relationship has a lot to do with their effectiveness. The purist, dry fly anglers turn their noses up to this ugly easy to tie style of fly because it can be nothing more than a piece of your bath mat lashed to a hook shank. But the thing they hate the most about the fly is that it will likely catch more fish than their exquisitely tied Catskill style dry fly!
