Best saltwater SHRIMP pattern for redfish or bonefish - McFly Angler Streamer Fly Tying Tutorials

[@MrFunkyko]

Tied these as my first shrimp fly for striped bass. Fairly easy tie and works like a charm

[@McFlyAngler]

Nice, do you caught a few?

[@farmerbob4554]

Excellent tutorial. You make it look so easy! I’ve got to get out to fly fish the surf. That was always a lot of fun!

[@McFlyAngler]

Let’s go! I’m gonna probably go either Sunday (tomorrow) or Monday... and I’ll try to get out some time the following week also. Gonna fish the surf a few times before going and filming the salten sea. Let me know via email when you can go.

I've been making flies similar to this for freshwater bonefish. (Carp.) Awesome video!

[@McFlyAngler]

Thanks! Oh I love carp fishing!

[@dgonzales540]

Work in rivers that have crawdads too caught a nice size rainbow recently using one of these in the Rio Grande.

[@McFlyAngler]

Nice! Yeah shrimp and crayfish patterns aren’t too far off from overall design.

[@marcianosanchez517]

I like your dubbing loop method! Definitely going to try it.

[@McFlyAngler]

Thanks!

[@smcisaac56]

Looks like the fly you copied was probably one of Enrico Puglisi's EP Spawning Shrimps, but you substituted dubbing spun in a loop for the (expensive) dubbing brush in Puglisi's original. Have a look at the ones on his website.

[@McFlyAngler]

I forgot if I mentioned in the video but someone asked me to tie a fly and gave me a picture of one. I did my best to come up with something similar. Thanks I’ll check out the EP fly. I don’t think so though, I think it was something else but I could be wrong.

[@PiscatorFlies]

Looks like a really good sw fly. I guess you're going to be hitting the salt more often now. Good to see some fly tying on your channel. Cheers

[@McFlyAngler]

Thanks! Yeah I’m gonna be fishing salt now much more often...

[@Bohunk1010]

Excellent, to the point!

[@McFlyAngler]

Thanks

Hey McFly I see you made it to my inbox via the Fly Tying Forum. Good job buddy, oh and a nice fly too.

[@McFlyAngler]

Thanks! And what did you mean by the inbox? Sorry I am not 100% sure I know whatcha mean.

[@johnnylightning1491]

My email inbox. I know, how 20th century.

[@McFlyAngler]

I know what an inbox is, just don’t know how I made it there. Or are you asking me to go check out my inbox? Sorry! Hahahaha. I feel dumb

[@johnnylightning1491]

I forwarded the email to you. I don't know how it got there either.

[@McFlyAngler]

Ohhhh. Now I see whatcha mean. Haha.

[@hufius]

Very nice. 🤙 I’ll have to make a few of these for a hopefully soon to happen Mexico trip

[@McFlyAngler]

Nice good luck man!

[@roydorman3048]

Does this mean that you are traveling somewhere tropical?

[@McFlyAngler]

Sorta... I mean it’s CA, not necessarily tropical here. But if you read the description, this was for someone that bought flies for me.

[@McFlyAngler]

From me, not for me
