Field Notes

A classic permit crab imitation for sight-fishing on tropical flats and other shallow saltwater situations where permit are feeding on crabs. Present it with a delicate cast and let it sink naturally near the fish, then use short, subtle strips or twitches to suggest a fleeing crab.

Pros

  • Highly realistic crab profile for permit
  • Natural colors suited to flats fishing
  • Designed for proven saltwater presentations

Cons

  • Specialized pattern with a narrow target species
  • Can be difficult to cast accurately in wind
