Chas, I was advised to glue the cone to the tube before tying. I think I
read that either in my tube fly book or on the web...anyhow it does work
well...I had to drill out the tube some because the clue tended to gather a
bit at the opening of the tube.

thought of the weight only tube, I tried the brass cone weights, but
they acted funny sliding up and down the leader as I retrieved the fly.
Lead on the tube sounds like the perfect solution.

Thanks for the great ideas,

Chas
