Used the Avalon Permit Fly during a trip to Cuban waters and saw several permit take the fly. The sink rate was fast and the hook stayed upright, which made it easy to see bites. A reliable choice for shrimp-oriented fishing.
Dominic Thomson –
Fished with this fly in shallow reefs and caught a few permit. The beaded keel works well to keep the hook pointing up. Slightly more expensive than other shrimp flies, but effective.

This fly mimics large shrimp perfectly. The quick sink and upright hook position made it stand out in the water. I’ve used it on multiple trips and it consistently draws fish.
