Trigger Flexo Crab Tan
This small but mighty crab fly is a killer pattern for Permit. With a sturdy hook and flexible body, this fly will be with you for many Queensland trips to come.
Developed particularly for super picky Trigger Fish wherever your travels may take you. This pattern is dressed on the Owner Fly Liner hook which is one of the only hooks we’ve found to withstand a Trigger’s bite.

Fished in Queensland and caught several Permit with this pattern. The hook holds up well under strong bites and the crab tan color matches the natural environment perfectly. A reliable choice for Trigger Fish.
Madeleine Ferguson –
Worked well in rocky areas where Trigger Fish are known to feed. The flexibility of the body helps it move naturally in the water. Only minor wear on the hook after a few casts.

Used this fly during a trip to the Great Barrier Reef. Caught a few Permit and one large Trigger. The Owner Fly Liner hook stayed intact even during a hard pull.
