In this video Matt ties up a version of Bob Veverka's Mantis Shrimp. This is one of our absolute favorite patterns for chasing Bonefish on the flats!
The Mantis Shrimp is a favorite prey of bonefish in tropical flats. With its realistic, multi-dimensional body and vibrant colors, this fly features a well-balanced profile that imitates the natural shrimp's distinctive shape and behavior. Its quick, erratic action when stripped through the water closely resembles the real thing, enticing bonefish to strike. The fly is a popular choice among anglers for its proven success in shallow waters, where bonefish are actively hunting for crustaceans.
