In this video Olly Thompson shows us how to tie an incredible all round saltwater pattern for bonefish, triggerfish - the Spawning Shrimp. He shows us some interesting shortcuts such as splitting the thread to make a dubbing loop and locking rubber legs off. Olly has had huge success with this fly during his time guiding on the various atolls in the Seychelles along with the Caribbean. He gives us a step by step in his tying process.
