Sandworm 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2015 Hi my friends. Here's a few pic's of my Grass Shrimp . It's a collectable fly now. But if u remove the legs and add soft hackles it turns into a Bone and Permit fly. Oh we'll , just a little something I came up with on a rainy day. Hope you like it.

Sandworm 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2015 Thanks Buddy. It's a little slim but most of the small live Shrimp I have handled usually are . They get a lot porky when they get to Fish Market size . The small one"s are actually transparent. But a clear shrimp is harder to see so I added a splash of color. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikechell 0 Report post Posted April 30, 2015 Yeah ... I wasn't complaining. Sparse is what's always called for with streamers and stuff. We forget that same principal applies to "hard body" flies, too. Less sometimes IS more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
