After promising it many times, I'm finally getting off my fat ass and creating a new streamer page entitled; The NEW Streamer Page + Wets.... Visit The Streamer Page at http://www.mountaincable.net/~pcharl...ers/index.html How about a few pages devoted to tube fly issues. I've recently started working with tube flies myself, and I'm amazed (and chagrined) I didn't take them more seriously sooner. ....any fly you can tie on a long-shanked streamer hook you can also tie on a tube of some sort. Tubes can be weighted as much or as little as you want. The primary benefit is (the tube's) ability to put a short-shanked hook at the rear end of the fly. Long shanked hooks do (because of increased leverage) pop out of the fish's mouth more easily, and more frequently. |

Long shanked hooks do (because of increased leverage) pop out of the fish's mouth more easily, and more frequently. Good idea. I've just started with tubes myself and they seem to offer all sorts of advantages. I'll work it into the tying section. |
