shrimp patterns for permit

Does anyone have some patterns of shrimp that they would share?

You might try the Shrimpf:

I've never used it, but it sure looks shrimpy.

BTW, where did you fish in Belize and which guides did you use? I was
there in April. We had numerous shots at permit, but no hookups. I did,
however, catch a pretty good tarpon:

Hey I bet that may work for sea perch too. I may have to try it what do you
think?
