Whalley's Crack Crab

When picky permit or spooky redfish are on the flats, the Whalley’s Crack Crab is the fly you want tied on. With a lifelike crab silhouette, neutral buoyancy, and just the right amount of weight to land softly, this fly is built for technical presentations and big rewards.

Tied with durable materials and finished in natural crab tones, the Crab Crack sinks slowly and rides hook point up, reducing hang-ups on turtle grass, sand, or coral. The lifelike legs and claws flutter subtly on the drop, mimicking a fleeing or defensive crab exactly what triggers a hard take from pressured fish.
