Seeing one of my flies in the mouth of that specific fish will never get old. What’s even sweeter is that it’s a pattern I’ve been working on that combines my favorite parts of a raghead, a strong arm merkin, and a flexo crab. It fits all the profiles, still lands relatively softly due to the flexo material, and keels on the strip thanks to @flatscraft “The Claw”. It’s always fun cooking up ideas at the bench, but if they don’t work, there’s not much point in doing it. Happy to see that this one does in fact work, even on some of the more spooky permit down in Honduras like this one.

This fish was caught by Ben Gherke, owner of @raidzap.
Great work man!! It’s one thing to tie on the right fly, get down to your location, get on the boat and find fish, and a whole other thing to deliver the fly and actually connect with one. So stoked I could be a small part of it!

Tied on the always reliable @ahrexhooks SA220

Really like these colors and the new polar bear patch I got matched the color of the dubbing perfect imo. Check out the tutorial on my YouTube channel and find many more.

My trusted @renzettillc Presentation vice. First pic is from backside of the vice and second frontside. I added a diy tool holder, metal ruler glued on for material lengths and a CF design cutter for threads and wires.

To add a little extra to the pictures I decoded to add some of great tools I use in my tying and fishing. First up is an new purchase that I look forward to use in end of this month. When the danica emerge and it is time to find the 3wt and dry flies in chase for big browns and seatrouts.

The shrimp:
Body and tail is a mix of @naukeli Alpaca latte and orange. Topped with orange Nutriaand a few strains of midge crystalflash. A hen hackle around the tail parts.
Shell: @pro.sportfisher invisible
Shell is topped with @raidzap thin and @easyshrimpeyes mahogany brown have an red pupil made with resin. At last eyes are topped with super thin for a smooth finish.
Threads: @veevusfishing GSP and Nylon.
@coreflyhooks salt sw 4
