Flats Crab (Bauer)

The Flats Crab, originally tied by Will Bauer, is perhaps the best permit pattern ever developed-no offense to the Merkin Crab. First fished successfully in Belize, this little critter regularly fools fish throughout the Caribbean and beyond.

The size #4 has been a smash seller for several years. This smaller size #6 might even surpass it as one of those "how come it took us so long" size additions.
