Description
The EP Grass Shrimp – Created by Enrico Puglisi. A perfect shrimp pattern for Snook. It has a realistic epoxy shellback that lends just enough weight to sink.
Pro Tip
Try fishing at night under a light for Snook. When fishing the EP Grass Shrimp, focus on casting it near structures where snook are likely to be hunting, such as mangroves, piers, or submerged rocks. Use short, controlled strips to make the fly pulse and flutter in the water, mimicking a shrimp’s natural movement. The key is to allow the fly to sink after each cast, then retrieve it slowly, with pauses to simulate a shrimp that is drifting or resting on the bottom.
