Hey Fly Tiers...What's In The Vise?

[trapper2000]

KC  try a  under wing of  bright pink with purple on top ......just a  guess

I have used pink and purple together and plan pink. But they don't work as well as the purple and black.

I messed with them a bit. Just not something I use much. Better suited for salt water I think. I quit tying for a bit. Building rods at the moment.

Well... I don't mess with them but I have a friend that ties them for trolling the Finger lakes and Ontario. They're probably not like the smaller versions you're thinking of, but "tube" style flies none the less. He uses them behind dodgers/flasher rigs. Pretty simple but very effective.

Nice lookin' bug!! What sizes do you usually tie them in?

[wiredstone]

size 12   Tied in reverse. I make them in sections. Get plenty of steelies on them. My thought is that bugs crawl forward and fish grab them by the head. My hookup rate went up 50%.

My wife worked for a jeweler and they make pins with colored copper wire. That gives the body a nice sink rate
