Just as the name suggests this is a simple shrimp and it’s a kind of fly that you can basically take what’s on you tying table if you’re a seatrout angler and ties seatrout flies.
The leftover Spey hackle combined with the fluorescent trigger point and a very good balance / buoyancy it the key to this patterns success in my opinion. Tie a bunch up, they are simple and great.
