Permit are the PhD thesis of fly fishing -- years of study, moments of brilliance, frequent rejection. This compact crab was designed for the flat-forehead snobs of the flats but works equally well on Gulf Coast sheepshead, which are basically permit that went to a state school. Lead eyes and a compact profile get it down fast where the fish are actually feeding, not where you wish they were.
