The 5 Best saltwater Shrimp Flies (2023 reviews)

These flies have been a great success in the Everglades canals for all sorts of species including peacock and largemouth bass, oscars and all of the other myriad fish that look like they belong in an aquarium. This fly does well with all shrimp / glass minnow eating flat species including the ever elusive permit. It features a 1x extra long shank and duratin finish for maximal corrosion resistance.

The mustad signature fly hooks feature unique sharpness and strength. It is suitable for a wide range of bonefish flies such as crazy charlie’s, clousers, redfish and permit patterns, but also for traditional fish imitation patterns using mylar tubing. This fly travels in the water upside down, the weed guard and calf tail keeps the pesky turtle grass off the hook. The straight eye gives the fly a more natural swimming action when stripped in. This may be the perfect fly for fishing the flats.

Why We Like This:

Work very well in the everglades
Chemically sharpened, nor-tempered high carbon steel
Works great and don't come apart
