Baby Blue Crab with Claws – McFly Angler Fly Tying Session

This fly pattern is one a customer of mine asked me to tie for them. They sent a picture and I went from there. It was called the “baby blue crab” on the picture, but if any of you know the actual name then let me know. I did not come up with this pattern, and honestly I don’t know if its tied exactly how the original was. I couldn’t find any info on how to tie it online, but this is what I came up with. It’s a crab with chenille claws. Seems like it will work really well though, and I figured I would show you how I tied this.
