vicrider 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2016 Got mine in today. Now if I only had a place where fish ate shrimp. Actually bass will eat anything that resembles food. Makes no difference if they've never seen on before. Very nice set guys, as usual. Keeping mine out of the pictures hurts deep down inside but I'll let it go since you were after showing the quality of the flies produced. :>( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted August 27, 2016 I did want to mention something and thanx for the pic and kind words. I was hunting videos of shrimp since I've eaten thousands but never seen one live. Anyway, in the video of the mono shrimp they brought the mono around and made that two loop tail. I kept looking at that and thinking about my eyes, which are small beads held to 30# mono with UV. In tying them in I brought them back to the hook eye and bent them around and tied off. I don't know if shrimp have a tail that would even resemble but the guy in the video thought it was a big part of his tie so I adapted it to mine. Just hope they fish well for someone.
