Notes:

Bryan McGowan’s Silhouette Shrimp

This shrimp pattern is ideal for winter months. The water start clearing up and by December the water is super clear making it very easy to spook the schools of redfish.  The Silhouette Shrimp pattern will land softly and sink slowly so not to spook the redfish.
