Redfish Rattle Shrimp

The Redfish Rattle Shrimp fly is a highly effective fly for targeting redfish, particularly in challenging conditions such as muddy or stained water. This fly is designed to mimic the movement and appearance of a shrimp, which is a staple in the diet of redfish. 

Retrieving the Redfish Rattle Shrimp Fly effectively is key to enticing redfish. Here are some tips for a successful retrieve:

 

  • Make Long Casts: Aim to deliver your fly well in front of the redfish with minimal false casting.
  • Slow, Deliberate Retrieve: Once the fly is in the water, use a slow, deliberate retrieve that mimics the movement of fleeing baitfish.
  • Strong, Foot-Long Strips: In shallow water, where fish are spooky, try a Gurgler pattern and use strong, foot-long strips to really hear the “pop” and spark the fish’s attention.

 

The goal is to make the fly behave like a natural shrimp, so adjust your retrieve based on the fish’s response and the conditions of the water. 

The Redfish Rattle Shrimp Fly is not only useful for catching redfish on mud or grass flats but also serves as an excellent prospecting fly around oyster rakes, where it can also catch flounder and trout. Its versatility and effectiveness make it a valuable addition to any saltwater angler’s tackle box.
