Shrimp flies

The Prawn Star is a shrimp imitation fly pattern. It's most effective for redfish during the fall months when shrimp are plentiful in the Lowcountry. The Prawn Star is a versatile pattern that can be fished in a grass flat or during a low tide. Tied on a 1/0 Gamakatsu SC15 Tied by Charleston Angler's own, Kyler Gartner.

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.
