Notes
A shrimp imitation developed by Bill Hunter in the mid 1990s, originally as an Atlantic salmon fly and later adopted on the west coast for steelhead. It is fished down and across through runs with active current, or cast slightly upstream with a downstream mend and retrieved with slow steady strips in calmer water.
