Description

The tactical tungsten shrimp fly was designed for targeting spooky striped bass in skinny water. The Tactical Tungsten Shrimp utilizes tungsten beads to keel the fly as well as provide a rattle effect when stripped across the bottom. This pattern has a moderately fast sink rate and is best fished with a floating or intermediate line in shallow water on or near the bottom. This fly shines in sight fishing scenarios. On top of striped bass, this fly has also been successful in targeting snook, redfish and sea-run brown trout.

Field Notes

Designed for skinny-water sight fishing when striped bass are spooky and feeding near the bottom. Fish it with a floating or intermediate line and strip it slowly so the tungsten bead keel and rattle help keep the fly tracking low and natural. Also a good shrimp imitation for redfish, snook, and sea-run brown trout.

Pros

  • Realistic shrimp profile for saltwater sight fishing
  • Tungsten beads help keel the fly and add sink/rattle
  • Works well with floating or intermediate lines in shallow water

Cons

  • Moderately fast sink may be too much for very shallow or weed-choked water
  • Best use is specialized rather than all-purpose
