{{+1}}Rattle prawn{{-1}}
{{start}}
This is quite a realistic prawn or shrimp imitation and incorporates a little bit of flash and a rattle in the body. Its particularly useful as a salt water polaroiding fly when just a twitch is often enough inducement for a strike and in murky water where a stop start strip gets the rattle working. I tie it in Root Beer / Pearl, Olive / Chartreuse and Pink / pearl but other colour combinations also work.
