Hi Rene: I've seen this idea before but it does not appeal to me. I prefer to have a selection of tube flies ready built that work for me. I don't like the idea of multiple tubes. I would consider placing a cone in front of a tube if I wanted to fish deeper and did not have a heavier tube, however, that would mean that I would have to ensure that the cone stays in place by jamming a wooden toothpick between the line and the cone.
Neville (Nev) Gosling Hi in a recent mag I found an interesting article about a 'tube fly construction kit' for streamside use. The concept is, that you tie the components of a tube fly (Wing, body, front hackle,..) on seperate, short tubes and later on the water, you select a body, a wing etc., fiddle them on your leader, attach the hook, and voila.. I' just started to build some of these components. Anybody else has done this so far? Rene -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the "VFB Mail" group.
