Martin Shrimp - simple and realistic fly tying instructions by Ruben Martin

Ruben Martin Shrimp
rubenmartin.co...
pembuatan umpan udang untuk memancing
Shellfish are an important part of a great diversity of fish both freshwater and saltwater.
Sea fishing in a good imitation shrimp should always be at hand in our box of flies and so does fishing for Atlantic salmon and sea trouts.
Other fish, freshwater, such as trout or basses usually feed on crustaceans such as crawfish or Patagonian called Samastacus.
This fly model is interesting as adapting hook, color and size can mimic both shrimp as "crawfish" in a realistic manner without addressing techniques tied too complex or difficult.
Hook: TMC 7999 or similar
Thread: UNI 8/0 or Danville 6/0
Weight: optional, lead wire.
Antennae: olive or clear monofilament paint with black barred.
Eyes: clear monofilament, burned and painted
Ribbing: ultra fine clear monofilament.
“Rostrum”: fox hair, dyed olive.
Legs and underboby: light olive polar chenille.
Shell: heat shrinkable pipping, olive painted on top.
“Telson”: light olive fluff hackle fibbers.
Note: “rostrum” and “telson”, they are terms of Shrimp Anatomy.

no sabes el bien que me haces... tengo hernias discales y ver esto me anima a intentar hacer estas cosillas artesanales.. por que ya tan apenas hay trabajo para mi, tengo 33 años y cada vez mi cuerpo me va a peor y ver un video en el que explica como hacer algo con tus propias manos y sin tanto esfuerzo fisico para mi es un alivio, y te lo digo muy enserio... mil gracias por subir tu contenido me subscribo espero ver mucho mas y aprender de ti maestro! gracias de nuevo.

Nice looking shrimp pattern

[@rubenmartinflies]

Thanks!!

I just moved to Honolulu where the bonefish go double digits. This pattern could just improve my chances of landing them from one per week to perhaps two per week. Thanks, Ruben.

Best shrimp tie that I have found. FYI....the music is a distraction. It is anxiety based music.

[@rubenmartinflies]

Hi thanks a lot my friend! Music is something that we try to change on the videos to make everybody happy, but like youtube allows the user to mute music, we think that is better that people put music of his own taste and enjoy the fly tying video instead of being worried about music. Best regards!

Have watched your video a couple of times, and will give it a try in a few days. Suggestion: more explanation of how to cut the straw to shape....it goes quickly on the video. Very nice looking shrimp. Should fish well here in Charlotte Harbor.

Hola ruben. Un gran trabajo. nunca he pescado con mosca, soy perscador a surfcasting i eging y llegue aqui a trabes de un japones que fabrica parecidas a estas con pajitas que utiliza para las sepias, pero es fascinante ver como fabricais las moscas. estoy por intentar hacer una y probar si a los calamares y las sepias les gusta. un saludo desde cataluña.

[@robertpettersson6244]

Nice shrimpfly. Gave me some good inspiration and ideas to work with. Like how you constructed the shell.
Trying to come up with a tubefly shrimp pattern that I feel happy with. Still ice here on the river though so can't test the flies yet.

[@robertpettersson6244]

+Ruben Martin Hi, would be interesting to see your tube shrimp. It is very fun and inspiring to see nicely tied innovative flies. I am very new to fly tying but have been working a lot at trying to get better fast. TH-cam makes it possible to learn quickly.
Finding it very fun to take inspiration from a lot of videos and coming up with my own unique patterns.
Like I wrote really like the way you made the shell. Going to try and make something similar with a drinking straw. The telson and painting antennae was nice. Have been using monofilament to create feelers but never thought about painting them strangely enough.
Just by looking at your shrimp it is obvious that it is an effective fly. Seems to me that a lot of people try and make their shrimpflies very realistic but overlook how everything moves in the water. Your pattern really seemed like it will not just look great but move great in the water.

[@rubenmartinflies]

Thaks buddy! I will upload a shrimp tube soon. Best regards!

Awesome shrimp... a few local modification touches and away we go. Maybe bigger, maybe smaller, grass, glass, or bay style shrimp of different color phases on possibly stronger hooks, and tarpon , snook, bull reds, trevaly, queenfish, triggers... they all gobble shrimp. Killer fly brutha.

Thanks George, you can make the changes easily to fish any species you like. There are a nice Ahrex hooks stronger but thin hooks to tie this pattern that are awesome. Kind regards
