Umpqua Fly McFly Crab Chicone
SKU: NFD9653
“The McFly Crab is a simple pattern that can be easily modified on the water and fished effectively anywhere.
I like the Ultra Micro Chenille legs because they provide a little more durability, and they tend to hold color better than rubber.
This provides a blank canvas that can be easily colored to mimic the vast majority of crabs you will encounter.
The materials that comprise this pattern are easily trimmed on the go if you need to shrink this pattern down for picky permit.
Contrary to most conventional crab patterns, it is weighted with lengths of non-lead wire lashed to the shank rather than with lead eyes or a beaded keel.
I wanted the fly to come down on the water softly, without the splat, and then to sink more uniformly like a real, unthreatened crab rather than plummeting to the bottom.
The second reason I opted for a wire weighting system is that it gives you a greater ability to tailor the amount of weight to the size of the fly.
With the wire, you are not bound to two or three different sizes of lead eyes that may be slightly too much or too little weight.
And the weighted wire foundation can be endlessly tweaked for varying water depths.”

Umpqua Fly Sandy’s Cracked Crab 4 Moret’s
SKU: NFD9681-4
Sandy knows the bonefish of the Keys as well as anyone. When he says this new pattern works we believe him, no questions asked. A mere two years old, it has scored big results around his Islamorada waters, and those big fish are as wary and picky as any to be found. It is not inordinately heavy, but is weighted “just enough” and designed to land softly for skinny water and tailing fish. Recently fished in the Bahamas, this fly was simply crushed repeatedly.

Umpqua Fly Simple Crab McGovney
SKU: NFD9683
“So I’ve spent a lot of time chasing large bonefish in very shallow water. Super spooky and very picky fish. Standard bonefish flies just don’t do the trick.
These fish have PhD’s in flies and will laugh at you while still feeding a foot from your fly.
Studying the flats we were on I noticed lots of crabs so next step was to try the typical permit crab but the problem with those we found out very quickly is they are like throwing rocks at them. Every cast the fly would hit the water and spook every fish within 20 feet of it.
So I went back to the vise and dug thru materials until I came up with the simple crab. It lands soft, hook up and when wet looks just like a real crab. The material even holds some air bubbles.
The key to it is to fish it slow. Once a fish has spotted it leave it which makes the fish think the crab is hiding. Fish will run right up to it and grab it.”
