vicrider 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2013 Very nice tie. That almost looks like lead wire. Is that hackle able to float that weight or does the Tenkara operator keep that dappling on the surface? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brhitch 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2013 Thanks. That is a lead wire. .020 and I'm pretty certain that the Tenkara fisherman would have to keep it on the surface by dapping. I am not a Tenkara fisherman myself, but did like the looks of the fly pattern. Hoping I can fish it similar to a Bully's Bluegill Spider, but who knows.
