Enrico’s Spawning Shrimp is a lifelike fly pattern designed to tempt bonefish and permit. Its realistic appearance makes it an appealing meal choice for these selective saltwater species.
The shrimp profile sits level in the water instead of tipping, which is exactly what I needed on a slow flat. Picked up two bonefish and a small permit on the same fly before it finally got shredded.
Tied one of these on before a permit flat at low tide and the fish didn’t hesitate—the lifelike profile did exactly what it was supposed to. Cast it slow along the drop-off and got a solid follow on the first drift. Feels sturdy enough for a few saltwater trips in the box, which is all I need.
That shrimp pattern sat in my fly box for two weeks before a permit finally committed to it—the lifelike profile must have done the trick because he chomped it on the second drift. Water got cloudy mid-morning but the realistic imitation still got noticed.
