RE: [VFB] wire body flys

[Mike Morris]

Depends on the fly size, I bought a package of craft wire from one of the big craft chains (Michaels?) that I like, 10 bucks for 8 or ten spools in all different colors, a very fine wire I can use down to size 16 or even 18.  It was in the bead department, same as ultrawire only loads cheaper.  I have also for years carried a fly tied using the strands of copper wire from an old extension cord.  Nuce fly but too bright for most conditions.  Sinks like a rock though.   Mike M   -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ed Ward Sent: Tuesday, December 13, 2005 3:55 PM To: vfb@troutnet.com Subject: [VFB] wire body flys   After reading a article about wire body flys I decided to add them to my  arsenal of  flys  and I was wondering if  there were any general rules as to what size wire  to use for  what size hook.
