AB Shrimp Bonefish and Permit Fly

The AB Shrimp is a saltwater-shrim p imitation fly meticulously hand-tied to offer maximum realism and performance on the flats. Designed to imitate the subtle profile, shape, and motion of a live shrimp, this fly features a natural shaped body and pronounced shrimp eyes that give it a convincing crustacean silhouette. Whether lying still on the bottom or stripping slowly with gentle twitches, the AB Shrimp delivers lifelike movement that attracts flats species such as bonefish, permit, and other crustacean-feeding saltwater fish.

Built on a strong saltwater hook, the AB Shrimp can be outfitted with different weight options — from unweighted to bead-chain or lead-eye — to match a variety of fishing conditions and water depths. Its balanced design ensures the fly sinks smoothly and maintains a “hook-point up” orientation, presenting a natural pose that wary fish are more likely to strike. As a versatile pattern, it excels in shallow tidal flats, sand or mud bottoms, and other flats environments where shrimp are a primary food source.

Whether used as a primary shrimp imitation or part of a diversified flats fly box, the AB Shrimp offers anglers a durable, realistic, and highly effective option for saltwater flats fishing.
