About this fly

If you desire a lighter presentation, you can eliminate the dumb bell eye. Use the weed guard if you are casting into some type of grass or oysters. Deer hair body spin 3 - 4 bunches of deer hair from the tail to the location of the dumb bell eye. Trim the bottom to open up the hook gap. Color could be tan or natural or the color of the crabs in your area.
