Getting Crabby Swap

Recommended Posts

And sitting on it. Fun, bouncing up every time it tries to escape.

It's calm now ... pay no attention to the "missing brats" reports you might hear.

Good question Dave. Deadline was a week ago and I believe yours were the only ones coming from across the pond. Correct me if I'm wrong...which is often anymore.

Hey everyone, got caught up traveling over the weekend. Last set of flies came in on Friday. I am hoping to get them in the mail tomorrow or Thursday.

Some crabs just crawled under my door.

There is only one problem I have with them...I don't know which one I want to fish with first.

Great set of crab flies guys.

Now to find some redfish or other hungry predators.

Well Dave I blind cast your crab today for a bit but no hits. Think I'll have to find someplace where I can wade that still has some redfish around and sight fish.

Looks like I am going to wait till this weekend to taste test them; too many people on the water today. We caught a bunch of speckled trout this past weekend on the spinning rod so looking forward to a good dinner. Happy 4th everyone.

Thanks Salty.

definitely a pattern to cast at sighted fish. But glad you got it wet.

 

Looking forward to feedback from you salties in the north. They are a fantastic fly for the flats here in the South Land (targets are usually golden trevally permit, and at this smaller size, slatey bream ("blue bastards")).
