The new Q EP hi-tie sand crab. Been doing really well with this fly this season so far. I do not figure eight tie in the EP like the surfin merkin, everything is tied on top of the shank and folded back giving the sand crab a more slender higher in the sand profile…keep the tails short, no fouls. they work equally as well in grey and salmon pink. try them and let me know how you do? photo by Al Quattrocchi
