About this fly

Weight is determined by the water depth. The medium bead chain is for shallow flats. Cut Egg Sack just to or just past the hook bend. Epoxy Eye color can be Red, Pink, Black, Green, or Brown. Eyes should extend a half of an inch past the Egg Sack. Two sili legs per side. Cut to a length just past 1" the Eyes. Antenna is single strand on each side. Cut Antenna 1 1/2" past the legs. Start the Shrimp Brush at the mid point of the hook shank and wrap three turns toward the eye of the hook. Tie in the Pearl Sparkle Brush where the Sprimp Brush ends. Wrap to the back of the Bead Chain.
