Crimp Bonefish and Permit Fly

A hybrid crustacean pattern designed by Doug McKnight, the Crimp merges crab and shrimp features into one deadly imitation. Ideal for bonefish and permit—and even redfish—it's a versatile staple for any flats box. The Crimp Fly is a smart hybrid that offers the best of both crab and shrimp worlds. With lifelike movement, point-up sink, soft water entry, and deadly proven results, it's a must-have for anglers targeting bonefish and permit in diverse flats scenarios. A top-tier, do‑it‑all pattern that performs anywhere bottom‑feeding crustaceans thrive.

• Crab + shrimp profile: Robust crab-like body from EP fibers and craft fur, with a shrimp-imitating wing+tail—plus a dash of Gotcha-style flash

• Dynamic movement: Soft fur and rubber legs create enticing motion, even when the fly is stationary on the bottom
  

• Weighted and weed-guard ready: Lead or bead-chain eyes ensure point-up orientation and fast sinking, while optional monofilament weed guards prevent snags
