Field Notes

This is a saltwater shrimp fly for bonefish and permit, especially when fish are feeding on larger shrimp patterns. It is designed to get down quickly and ride hook-point up, making it useful over flats and other shallow saltwater areas where a natural shrimp presentation matters.

Pros

  • Fast-sinking profile helps reach feeding fish quickly
  • Hook-point-up design can reduce snags
  • Strong bonefish and permit pattern

Cons

  • Requires accurate presentation to wary flats fish
  • Best used with fly tackle and some saltwater experience
