Mantis Shrimp Variant
Related content
The grand-old-man in saltwater-flyfishing and -tying Bob Veverka created the famous pattern The Mantis Shrimp. The fly has proven its ability to imitate shrimps and to "fool" saltwater-fish in big numbers - and it is a must-have in every bonefishers fly-box. In this video we have teamed up once again with Mathias "Krølle" Ibsen who ties his version of the all-time-classic, an easy-to-tie fly Mathias has caught a big number of nice bonefish on.

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.
