[VFB] Tying on #16 and smaller hooks

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

Folks: I was wondering if anybody else has trouble with things like chenille covering the hook gap on #16 and smaller hooks??? Seems that even when I use Micro chenille it wants to fill in the hook's gap and thus, I get bites, but lose a lot of fish...And, if I start up farther from the hooks bend, I only get about one good wrap, or then it covers the hook's eyes???? I tried going to a 3/0 thread body, and/or unraveling a regular knitting yarn, and using a strand of it,and using floss as well, but I lose the "sparkle" of the "crystal chenille" that attracts the fish.. Thanks for any ideas..Thanks, Chuck
