C LeBo 0 Report post Posted June 1, 2013 Ive always had a hard time tying hoppers and really admire those who can whith ease, so I decided that I would finally sit down til I tied a decent opper, and here it is. Enjoy! Thank You and Tight Lines, Carson LeBoeuf Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crackaig 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2013 Got a few of my BiColour nymphs done for myself today. The original Wire body for weight, With a bead, Fancy (Usefull as a point fly on the lochs), Scruffy, hare's ear version, And even a simple caddis pupa, (Sorry not my best photos, couldn't find my lens extension tubes) Now its back to the Wally Winged Grey Wullfs and Double Badgers. 5 dozen of these to get tied today. Cheers, C. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piker20 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2013 what is the purpose of using a double hook? Well it allows a smaller hook that is heavy to sink down without using additional weight or a heavy wire hook. They ride quite nicely in the flow and they are traditional, I like the look of them over singles. The barbs will be flattened before fishing and they don't seem any more difficult to remove than singles. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hellgrammite 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2013 Crackaig, the nymphs, I love them. Gonna try these in the 20-22 sizes, look much easier than PTs at that size. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
