Another great exercise in simplicity , typical of Chico Fernadez's flies. Chico's snapping shrimp is a great skinny water bonefish fly, but I've also caught carp, snapper, emperor and trevally on this pattern and I'm sure it will work for others too.

Long story short
Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.
Long story longer
The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
