Flexi Shrimp
Understated natural shrimp
MulletShallow
A natural ginger/brown dubbed body ribbed with fine wire and a sparse speckled tail — no bright hot-spot, just an honest small sand-shrimp profile. One of Colin Macleod's mainstay patterns.
Fish this when
The reliable go-to over sandy ground when fish want a natural profile rather than a triggered one.
Why it works
Small sand shrimps are genuinely abundant mullet food, and an understated natural tie avoids spooking fish that have seen brighter patterns already.
