I am a relative novice to tying fresh water flies. I have been tying some wooly buggers but wanted it to ride hook point up. In salt I have always used weighted eyes to do so. I have heard mixed opinions about weighted eyes spooking Carp (which is what I was fishing for).
Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way to get a bugger or other fly to ride hook point up but still have a natural/match the hatch type of presentation? I tied some with a wing like on a crazy charlie but am wondering if they are going to look at it as "foreign" to what they might normally eat.
Thanks for the help!
