Piker20 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2015 I've yet to catch one of our costal seatrout on a shrimp pattern. I was sent some very realistic ones by another forum member but no joy. Do you have a lot of shrimp in your waters as if we do I never see any. Small fish, hermit crabs, sandeels and sand fleas seem to be the main quarry around here. When you fish shrimp patterns do you let it sink and fish very slow pulls or just swinging it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deerhairdan 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2015 France themed articulated baby turtle going to Paris for display. A buddy of mine at the office went duck hunting last weekend and got a nice drake woody. He gave me some flank feathers to play with. I washed them thoroughly, dried them, and used them on this drunk and disorderly streamer. Looks pretty sick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
