About this fly
Hare’s Ear Crawler Nymph After mayfly eggs are laid, they hatch within usually 2 or 3 weeks and start the next cycle as nymphs. There are four basic types of mayfly nymphs - the burrowers, swimmers, clingers and crawlers. Each type of mayfly nymphs has their own particular habitat and behavior. The majority of flies to imitate the crawler nymphs can be from hook size 12 down to the very small hook size of 22, however, the Great Red Quill and the Western Green Drakes can be fished with a hook size of 10 and larger.
