Peg, i expect a kiss for being the first one to get his flies in. The extra two in there are for you. And those hooks i put in there are special Japanese dry fly/emerger Umbrella, Elephant Proof hooks. The entire body, wing, etc. is tyed on that little straight area right behind the eye.....the rest falls down into the film and (OOPPSS!! says the fish).....you dig? They're very cool hooks, and you should see the flies tyed on them.......i have some finished flies tyed on them, by some Japanese heavyweights. Come over and see 'em next time. i figgered you'd like a few to see what they're bout. They come in small (#20,#18,16) medium (#16,#14,#12) and large (#12,#10,#8).....just three sizes to cover that range. Have fun. btw, it's Conover, not Condor
