The Bonefish Squimp is a great shrimp pattern for shallow waters where a delicate presentation is needed but you want more action in the fly than say a Crazy Charlie. The craft fur, silicone legs and flash accent all move in the water even when this fly is sitting still. It is a easy pattern to tie and one that anyone casting to Bonefish should have in their fly box. - Enjoy
