December Flies from the Vise

Is that a reversed bead at the head? Is it concave or just the photo? Wondered if it alters the action of the fly??

 

yes

 

a reversed micro cone head bead

 

it shouldn't affect the action but i haven't fished it yet

Thanks flytire, was thinking it will move the water differently from a head with a tapered angle at the front. Do you know what the reason for tying it in that way round originally was?

I saw a fly tied that way on Instagram and thought it was a good idea. That's all

 

However beads don't always have to be installed on the hook with the small hole towards the eye.

 

Experiment

FLdk, that is a nice looking fly. Love the the colors.

Thank you, i have a secret crush on the Green Highlander.

Not going to try the married wing version yet, maybe one day.

 

 

Another LeBlanc pattern.

Added a bit more green heron than the original pattern.
