A crab pattern that can be employed to catch permit as well as bonefish, triggerfish, bluefin trevally and even bumphead parrotfish. Crabs are almost impossible to imitate with any real degree of subtlety, but this fly is almost perfectly camouflaged, as the seabed shows right through it. We've read that permit and other tough cookies like big, spooky bonefish and bluefin trevally fall regularly for this fly because they lose sight of it and then, when they do see it, they fear that it will disappear again, and rush into eating it.

Imitates: Crab

METHOD

Drops quickly as the water moves through the mesh body while providing a wide crab-like profile. Good for catching bone fish in the shallows, throwing tight in front of them to elicit feeding.
