ARTICULATED Mantis Shrimp Fly Tying Video: BACKWATER VLOG #85

[@michaelogden5958]

No fair!!! I thought I invented that fly just yesterday. LOL! Mine is a little different, but yeah, I wanted a longer mantis shrimp pattern. Thanks for sharing!

[@michaelburk9171]

That pattern could match well with the long bodied ghost shrimp we have in southern California's bays. Thanks for the tutorial

[@waltn3202]

I agree with john, I enjoyed having you talk us through it.

[@BackwaterFlyFishing]

I really dig that blue thread you've been using on the shrimp and crab patterns lately. Is it just a blue Danville?

yep. Just blue 210 flat wax nylon

[@BackwaterFlyFishing]

Sounds like a plan!

What? No marabou? No articulated legs along the bottom of the body? No tail weight? No rattles? No weed guard? Omg! What is 2021 coming to?! And we just started tying flys....🤤 Just kidding! Sweet looking fly. Thanks man, for sharing the tying steps. 😉
