I don't know the ratio, but I think it is fairly significant.  If someone can prove me wrong I'll quit paying so d*mn much $$ for beads!   Jim -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Mark Steudel Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 12:33 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Tungsten Weight vs. BH WAS( Yakima report) I was wondering if there was a big weight difference between bead head flies and tungsten headed flies? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tim Harris Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 9:39 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Yakima report I never use shot on the leader, I just put on a heavier primary nymph if needed, going to tungsten beads or if the water is really cruising I’ll stick a #10 tungsten GRHE on there or a stonefly nymph.  The thing is bad enough to cast without that shot whirling around.   Tim   From: owner-[EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:owner-[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 9:19 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Yakima report   Do you add any split shot or just rely on the bead head to sink your fly?
