Author's Note
André Boucher is also a skilled fly tyer. To the artificial flies that have earned their stripes, Boucher liked to add a personal touch. Thus, a few years ago, he modified the Godbout, a fly created by fly tyer Pierre Tremblay of Quebec City. Instead of attaching hair wings, he replaced them with Krystal Flash or Twinklke Hair, and from the very first attempts, it brought him success. As the play of light on the strands of this material reminded him of the purity of crystal, he named this fly the Godbout de Cristal (Crystal Godbout).
