Field Notes

A flats crab imitation for sight-fishing on shallow tropical water. Best presented with a delicate cast and allowed to sink or crawl naturally along the bottom where permit, bonefish, and redfish feed on crabs.

Pros

  • Realistic soft-shell crab profile
  • Designed for permit, bonefish, and redfish
  • Translucent mesh body adds lifelike appearance

Cons

  • Requires accurate presentation to wary fish
  • Can be less effective if fished too fast
