Love the look of these flies... especially the disco beads on jig hooks. Thanks for sharing!

Jack I am free Sunday I can help you field test those flies. My not so pretty version of those Olive ones worked very well out west last month

Thank you Tc, first time I've used those kind of beads they didn't have the regular kind in that size and color so I grabbed those. Definitely catch more light.
You definitely did well on those fish out there Roger, you were holding some real healthy fish there. You are my number one field tester on new patterns and always will be, ( you always shoot it straight, good or bad) I'm all tied up this weekend but I want to get out as soon as possible.

Beautiful flies.

Jack, what kind of beads do you use to go over the kink in the hook near the eye?

That pattern would also be great in size 20.

Thank you Rc. Thanks Gene, those are slotted beads. Made for the jig hooks.

Jack, I am going to be near Coburn Sunday and Monday. You want to try and fish Penns? Spring?

Really nice flies Jack. Is that uni stretch for the body?

Great little flies....I can see them working a treat on many streams.

Pm sent Gene. Thanks Whheff, you are correct that's what the body is. Thank you Eunan.
