Product details
The Fleeing Sargasso Crab from Ruppert Harvey Flies is a hyper-realistic crab imitation designed to replicate the natural movement of a fleeing crab.
Made from a soft, stretchable material similar to silicone but more durable, it delivers an active, stable swimming action during retrieval.
Its slightly flexible legs create a smooth, lifelike motion that perfectly mimics a crab scuttling across the bottom.
Designed for saltwater fishing, it performs best on flats, lagoons, and sandy areas where fish feed heavily on crabs. A deadly choice for bonefish, permit, triggerfish, trevally, and tropical bream.
