Umpqua Crimp Merkin Brown 4 McKnight

By A Mystery Man Writer

Mix a little crab with a little shrimp, and you have a Crimp! Solid option on the flats for both bonefish, redfish and permit, among other species. It's a marriage made in heaven. That is how simply juicy looking is Doug's effort to cobble together one fly that is both Crab and Shrimp, more specifically a mantis shrimp. This is a go getter for its intended quarry of bonefish, redfish and permit. Doug assures us, if it eats shrimp or crabs, the fish will eat this fly.

, Doug McKnight's terrific bonefish/permit pattern. Size 4 only.
