Used the Spay Shrimp on a bonefish trip in the mangroves and caught two fish in a row. The pattern mimics natural shrimp movement well and stayed on the surface effectively. Great for beginners and experienced anglers alike.
John Bower –
Fished it in brackish waters near the estuary and had success with redfish. The size and color match the local shrimp, making it a reliable choice in mixed conditions.
Gabrielle Howard –
Worked well for permit in shallow flats. A bit more delicate than expected, but still effective when fished slowly with a soft retrieve.
