ESL Shrimp

No comments yet

I’ve made this little tutorial to share my enthusiasm about this pattern. I was inspired by Kenneth Hejnfelt, a skilled Danish fly tier and friend, who I saw tie this one not long ago. I made my own versions and this tutorial is a brown version. Tried it in the local fjord and both swam beautifully in the water and looked like a shrimp really good imo.
Hope you like the tutorial and give it a thumbs up and plz subscribe for more content.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

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.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher has recently been updated to a new publishing system, and there may be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
