Raghead Crab

The Raghead Crab is a staple of the saltwater flat — a compact, realistic crab pattern that lands softly, sinks naturally, and sits in the strike zone exactly the way a fleeing crab would. The white colorway with chartreuse and yellow eyes is one of the most versatile combinations on the water, reading well in clear shallow flats where redfish and bonefish are tailing and feeding.

Tied by North Country Flies on a size #2 hook, the Raghead features a rounded body, splayed rubber legs, and a marabou tail that pulses with the slightest current. Drop it in front of a tailing red, let it sink, and hold on. Whether you're fishing the Gulf Coast, the Florida Keys, or any inshore flat, this is the kind of crab pattern that earns its place in your saltwater box. Pick one up at Glenwood Springs Outdoors before your next coastal trip.
