This fly works well in deeper flats where I’ve had trouble catching bonefish before. The spawning shrimp color is especially effective during early morning hours. I’ve used it in multiple trips and it’s become a staple in my fly box.

The muted pink version caught a permit I didn’t expect. It sank smoothly and stayed natural in the water. I appreciate the variety of colors available for different conditions.

Great performance in both shallow and deeper areas. The lead eyes help it sink properly, and the pattern draws fish attention consistently. Highly recommend for bonefish and permit anglers.
