- Capt. Gibson, from Fly Fish Rockport in Rockport, Texas, gives step by step instruction for tying the Flexo Crab Pattern. Also called a Mesh Crab or Mylar Crab, this pattern is excellent in a variety of saltwater flats locations.
This fly is outstanding for Sheepshead on the Texas Coast. But will also work very well for redfish on the flats or even permit in The Keys, Mexico, Cuba and Belize.
This fly is fairly easy to tie, although it can take a little bit of time. But the finished fly is very lifelike and a valued addition to any flybox.

Good job Gibson!
Those figure 8’s be so smooth on the eyes! Bet it’s a killer on some finicky sheepshead.
Indeed they are!
Cool fly!
That’s a cool fly!
That’s awesome!
I'm not into saltwater fly fishing, but that crab fly looks amazing.
Appreciate that. Never too late to get the salt bug. 😜
Nice work
I wondered how this pattern was tied , now I know . Thanks for sharing
Glad we could help! Super fun tie. Drop a comment if there is anything else you would like to see. Happy to tie whatever!
@@Flyfishrockport I’ve been trying for over 30 years and just in the past 10 years have been getting into the salt water fishing side of the sport . Living in Montana doesn’t offer any salt water options so Belize and Mexico have been where we go to satisfy our salt water needs and I have to say once you get the salt water in your veins it’s life changing . Cant wait for our next salt water adventure. Can’t think of any patterns I’d like to see other then if you have some favorite tarpon fly patterns I’d be interested . Thanks
@@mikekuczynski1552 It’s currently -16 at my house on the Missouri River in MT. Not an accident I hide out in warmer/saltier climates this time of year. Ha! Saltwater fishing becomes addictive. Pretty soon you will have traveled to every salty flat there is, just like I did. So much fun!
Thanks for watching the videos! Let us know if you want to see anything else in particular for the salt! Tarpon, permit, bones, etc…
@@Flyfishrockport I hear you -14 in Ennis .
Great looking fly!
I wish the camera was positioned in a different angle so we can have a better view of the fly.
