Fly Tying Video: The Shrimp & Cray Tail Faux Shrimp



Learn To Tie This Next-Generation Shrimp Fly Pattern

Best fished on either floating or intermediate lines targeting redfish, bonefish, snook, permit, and the occasional tarpon, the Shrimp & Cray Tail Faux Shrimp leans more toward medium water as it gets deep fast thanks to the Fish-Skull Shrimp & Cray Tail. When sight fishing, lead the fish and once the fish turns, make short strips until you come tight.

Fly Recipe

  • Hook: Gamakatsu SC15 #1
  • Tail: Fish-Skull Shrimp & Cray Tail, medium
  • Mouth (for lack of better term): Polar Flash Silver
  • Body: Laser Dub 
  • Eyes: DIY Mono/UV Resin Eyes
  • Underbody: Diamond Braid
  • Body: Laser Dub
  • Under-Carapace: Fish-Skull Faux Bucktail
  • Carapace: Barred Pseudo Hair

    Nice tie! I’d love to see a video like this without the irritating music, though. Let’s face it, no one actually likes or listens to that type stuff
