Take the most effective fly pattern in history, add crystal chenille so it sparkles like a tiny underwater chandelier, and you have the Crystal Woolly Bugger. It is the original recipe with an upgrade -- like putting premium fuel in a reliable sedan. The flash draws attention from across the pool, and the marabou tail does the closing. It is not innovative. It does not need to be.
