The Ostrich Mysis is a simple, but very effective mysis shrimp pattern. Mysis shrimp are the food source for huge trout in many western tailwaters. They are extremely high in protein, allowing fish to grow massive. If you are visiting a tailwater where mysis shrimp are present, then make sure you have some of these before you leave!!
