charles mc farlane thanks Charles, glad to hear it's useful. I know a lot of people find the EP dubbing loop but tricky.

[@waltervancleave6495]

I make some of my own shrimp eyes. If you dab a drop of hot glue onto the tip of the two monofilament pieces it will be much easier to manipulate.

[@flickingfeathers]

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not sure the fact that they were separate was causing the problem. I always just pick 2 eyes and tie them in, generally without any problems. I think probably I had used slightly too soft/light mono for the eyes.

Great looking fly ......I have tied similar shrimp bugs ....and in salt water the Spotted bay bass love them . I use them in the lagoons around where I live . thanks again for the tie .....

[@flickingfeathers]

ski bum thanks, hope you tie some of these to try too

[@Sirskibumsalot]

Martyn White Flicking Feathers indeed I will for sure !

[@sandeel2]

Nice one Marten.I give the mono on the eyes a little nip with some pliers to flatten it and it makes them easier to tie in.

Dave Raymond thanks for watching. I usually do too actually but I often screw things up as soon as I put the camera on. All the best Martyn
