Shrimp flies

[juststartedagain]

fly body was 1" with a tail of about 1.5". Material was Seaguar 11.6lb - first time was direct to line (which at the time was the Orvis tarry rope (see separate post) second time was via Airflo inter 5'.

Leader length was probably around 6-7 ft.

I have changed to Maxima Chameleon in the last couple of weeks but haven't used a treble - will try next week

OK thanks..

I'll try the 15/18 and also Maxima and see how I get on

cheers

problem completely resolved since moving to the Monteith - seems part of the problem was all the effort required to lift and throw the old orvis tarry rope..!
