A bead behind the soft hackle is a good trick. You can also add just two or three little strands of KF too, no longer than half a shank in length. mark........

The body feathers. I have dyed some of them colors and they work great at
times. Wrap fairly sparse so you get more movment. Send you new address and
I will mail one.

I just had to tell you about this to bug Jimmy D as he can't get out.

Went to pond yesterday morning. I could see fish working al over the
pond. I had strikes on almost every cast. Lost alot of fish as they
were just barely lip hooked but still had great fun.

I did get 3 bass that were over 16 " long. Great fun on the 3 wt I
built.

Most of the fish were on a peacock sword tail nymph.

hook size 8 to 14
tail 4 peacock sword
body ostrich herl (can also use emu)
hackle soft feather of some sort.
This one was tied with a small bead behind the hackle.


Rick
