Fjord Shrimp - Fjordrejen

No comments yet

Shrimp-flies is proberbly one of the most effective type of flies for both fresh- and saltwater. Here in scandinavia shrimpflies are a “must-have” in the box of every coastal flyfisher. This time we will be tying a small simple pattern using the soft fluffy fibres of a CDC-feather tied as a hackle - simple yet effective. We once again have the skilled tyer and coastal expert Jesper Lindquist Andersen behind the vice.

The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
See more details about what you can do to help in this blog post.

The Global FlyFisher was updated to a new publishing system early March 2025, and there may still be a few glitches while the last bits get fixed. If you meet anything that doesn't work, please let me know.
