Frank Moore of Anchorage developed this variation of the Polar Shrimp. In streams, it is fished on a dead drift along the bottom. When fishing at a lake inlet, Frank usually casts the fly across the current, allows it to sink to the bottom, then retrieves it with erratic jerks. It is particularly effective for king and silver salmon, Dolly Varden, and steelhead in streams on Kodiak Island. Bruce Bowman once observed Frank catch and release 40 steelhead in a day with this pattern.
