Pink Shrimp

16 November 2013  |  JP

Pink Shrimp - A classic fly from our "Grayling Through the Year" DVD; this Gammarus imitation will also work well if tied with orange dubbing and shellback.

Tip: Using a matching thread colour helps maintain the vibrance of the dubbing when the fly is wet.

Hook: Fish On Curved
Thread: Fish On UTS (colour to match dubbing)
Underbody: Lead wire
Dubbing: Fish On Shimmer-Dub
Shellback: Fish On Shimmer-Back (braided)
Rib: Fish On Coloured Wire
