Psycho's Surf Fishing "PHAT" Sand Flea with Eggs for Outer Banks Fishing

The Psycho's Surf Fishing "PHAT" Sand Flea with Eggs from Psycho's Surf Fishing is designed to imitate a larger-profile sand flea presentation commonly used in surf fishing. Built with a fuller body and egg detailing, this rig is ideal when targeting species that key in on crustaceans along the Outer Banks shoreline.

The “PHAT” profile offers increased visibility and presence in the wash, making it a strong option for OBX surf and pier anglers fishing for drum, pompano, and other bottom-feeding species.

On the Outer Banks, larger-profile sand flea imitations can be especially productive during pompano and drum runs. The PHAT Sand Flea with Eggs offers a bold presentation that stands out in sandy, moving water.

For best results:

  • Fish it on a double-drop or pompano-style bottom rig
