Cayo Shrimp
The Cayo Shrimp is a hand-tied saltwater fly built for spooky redfish and bonefish in clear, shallow water. Tied on a size 4 Mustad Tarpon Streamer hook, it features peach cactus chenille, barred and brown-tip sili legs, orange Tide eyes, medium silver bead chain, smoke and black Krystal Flash, and a Fulling Mill shrimp brush for a lifelike, translucent profile. Designed to land softly, move naturally, and trigger eats when fish are at their most cautious.
