With the BWO hatch starting or pretty close, I was curious about the smaller soft hackle bwo patterns (size 16 an down.) Does anyone have experience using these?

Weighting the line causes a grossly unatural speed up as the weight begins to swing and the fry has to race to catch up with it.
A sinking line, a sinking leader, or a weighted fly is the appropriate way to do this.
Gary, I can see what you mean if you are you talking about swinging the fly, what I was saying was dead drifting it like a nymph. When swinging I don't add any weight.gfen wrote:
