[VFB] Re: shim stock..brass..how thick

[Joyce Westphal]

In checking out the shim stock, brass on Google., I see that there are varying thickness, from 0.09 to 0.031.. which is the best for the Edson point flies? Thanks for your help..think these will be fun to try. Have done similar flies (thanks to hint from UK Flyfishing and Flytying magazine) with similar treatment using Holographic mylar..works great.
