Gurglar Shrimp How To

For those interested in tying the Reverse Gurglar Shrimp here is the how to, I am hoping to try this pattern this weekend

Everything Needed for the pattern


Thread Danville Cream 210


Hook Size 4 Gamakatsu B10S


Tan Marabou


Tie in 2 Hackle Feathers Rooster or Grizzly, your choice


Softex Eyes Made with 50 LB Mono


Cut the Eyes apart tying them in on opposite sides, color them black with a Sharpie


Materials used for the Body, 1 Grizzly Feather, 1 Small Piece Foam, 5 inches Cream Chenille


Tie in Chenille, I wrap once behind eyes and once in front to position the eyes


Once in front


Tie in foam piece in front of eyes, and chenille wrap


Tie in Grizzly Feather


Wrap Chenille down shank and to the eye


After the chenille, wrap the hackle to hook point


Pull the foam over and tie it down, trim to your choice of shape, I like a point or straight



Enjoy, will post videos of use
