Moon Crabs
New Design 2023 !! allows for more articulation in the right parts so it lands right, folds up easily on the eat, has more visible legs, more defined claws !! Proving to be much more effective than previous designs when considering the drag the design has in the water and the need for the fly to land hook point up every time
These Moon Crab components have been designed and developed and now made in Australia by Flats Craft to realistically match the locally found Moon Crab
It’s widely known that the Spotted Moon Crab is a staple diet of both species of Permit we have in Australia, both Anak and Blocchi. The Blochii and Moon crab are the same species found in the Indian ocean such as the Seychelles, Oman, Maldives etc.
These components offer the tier an ultra realistic fly that is as simple or complicated as you want to make it. The material used to make these components is soft and will sink. The material also takes ink and paint well.
The Moon Crab can be tied both sideway and straight. The Gav's Crab is by far the most popular way of using these legs. To watch how to tie the Gav's Crab, click here - Watch Tying Video
