Peterson’s Spawning Shrimp fly

Description

let me tell you about this killer shrimp pattern that Elburgon Flies Supply is tying up, Peterson’s Spawning Shrimp fishing fly. I’m not even kidding, this saltwater fly is straight-up fish candy, and I got to share why I’m so stoked about it.

First off, if you’re looking through saltwater flies for sale right now, you might scroll past this one – don’t, Look, I know it’s not as famous as some other patterns, but holy cow, does it get the job done. The folks at Elburgon are tying these things with some kind of magic in their fingers, I swear.

You know how sometimes you’re on the flats, and you can see those little shrimp just dancing in the water? That’s exactly what this fly does. The way they’ve tied it, with those translucent materials and those little legs that quiver, it’s ridiculous how real it looks. Seriously, it’s gotta be one of the best saltwater flies I’ve ever thrown at permit , and those fish are picky.

Want to hear something crazy? I was fishing these down in the Keys last season, had a guide literally ask me where I got them because the permit wouldn’t leave it alone. The weighted eyes make it ride just right in the water, and the hook placement? Perfect hookups almost every time.

Look, I’m not trying to oversell it, but if you’re hitting the flats anytime soon, do yourself a solid and grab a few of these from Elburgon. Get different sizes, trust me on this one. Because when you’re out there and you spot those tailing bones or that monster permit, you’re gonna want something that looks exactly like what they’re eating. And this fly? This is it, buddy. This is absolutely it.

Oh, and here’s a pro tip, when you’re working it, give it these tiny little twitches. Makes those legs dance just like a real shrimp trying to scoot away. The fish go nuts for it.
