Garry,
SJW's are one of the flies on the list for the MM, but they don't imitate
the crane fly larvae. Cranefly larva are very fat and live bait fishermen
swear by them over everything else. If you nipped the midsection out a
night-crawler and sewed up the ends, that would be similar to a cranefly
larva. These are also very dark in color, like a crawler, but mottled
somewhat.
