"Appreciate it John…..fish was very shallow roaming looking for herring fry……."
Do you love big bluegill?
Grass shrimp
As promised here is my step by step on the grass shrimp . I've not yet fished it but it will get it's chance as soon as possible. Here are the materials needed:Size 6 Aberdeen hook, white thread, small diameter lead wire, pink crystal flash, grizzly hackle, clear thick cellophane, mono fishing line 25-40lb, pink and gray makers, epoxy of your choice. I like fabric fusion because it is soft and flexible after it dries.
Step1: Tie in a pinch of feather and a couple strand of crystal flash as above.
Step 2: Tie in eyes made from burnt mono. Color with black marker if you want a darker eye. Locate them right at hook bend.
Step3: Tie in a strip of cellophane approximately 1/4 inch wide and twice the length of hook, as above.
