My first attempt at a quigley sulfur cripple.

Hook: Mustad 94840 #14

Thread: pale yellow 6/0
Hackle: Natural Grizzly
Wing: Natural Gray Deer Hair- costal deer
Body; Natural Gray Ostrich Herl
Ribbing: Fine Gold Wire
Tail: Natural Gray Ostrich Herl
Thorax: Super Fine Pale Yellow

Let me know what you think. Also how do you keep the Deer hair from flairing above the eye. In the pictures in steps for creating it seems the hair was out over the eye.

If you bring the stuff to tie that on Saturday, I'll work with you on it. The basic idea of the cripples is to tie the deer hair out over the eye. We'll show you how to do that - it's easy.

The rest looks good except for the tails - the pattern calls for marabou tips. Of course, you can use what you want...
 
i think it will certainly entice fish to rise. i usually tie my sulphur patterns in alot lighter color but the fish will take it. nice tie!
