That's great! Now it's time to start tweeking the fly so you can catch more than one.
Not trying to burst any bubbles, you are doing great. I think I even still have some of my "throw it together with what I have" flies from way back. Think they caught a fish.
But I started changing them to what I noticed they wanted in way of color, size, shape till I come up with one that catches ever trip.
Some fish are just hungry and will hit anything. I can't tell you how many fish I have caught off a fly that has been totaled till there is just a few wraps of thread left.
As for your crayfish, are you fishing it off the bottom? Most are heavy weighted and tied hook up.
