San Diego Mylar Shrimp (Uploaded from: Norman Orida)
The San Diego Mylar Shrimp is a versatile weighted fly with proven effectiveness
for a wide variety southern California surf species including corbina, surfperch,
yellowfin and spotfin croakers, halibut, guitarfish, leopard sharks, stingrays, and
white seabass.
Recipe:
* Red monocord 3/0 thread (Danville or other)
* Mustad 34007 hook, #6-1/0 or equivalent
* Gold 5/32 brass eyes (nickel works, too)
* Leadcore line (12# Cabela's or other brand. I suggest 12# since it is pliable and easy to work with. 0.015" lead wire can substitute.)
* Cream colored Betts Standard Z-Lon or cream-colored craft fur. (Z-Lon is very expensive and craft fur is an acceptable substitute.)
* Red Grizzly Leggs (actually red with black flecking, Spirit River)
* Black pearl Krystal Flash
* Red Holographic Mylar Motion 1/32" (Spirit River)
