Your local golf course or golf supply store will probably have some
flat lead made for wrappping on clubs.

Thanks Vince,

but I fish lead-free

heck, I even participated in volunteer steel shot studies to test for gun
damage and crippling increases for several years before steel shot became
'the law" for waterfowling

every little bit helps when lots of people do that little bit

Oooo oo I just thought of another idea!!!

How about Epoxy on the belly!

Does anybody have thoughts and ideas on ways to make sure that two tone
nymph patterns actually 'float' near the bottom top side up?

...snipt
ties and stabilize their 'float' right side up at the same time?

Sandy? Littleton? other sharp tacks out there ?

Tying nymphs as Bankrobbers is one way to keep them right-side up.
This is a technique
that originally had big stonefly nymphs in mind. But it's worth
mentioning

shudder ... I'm going to have nightmares over that one :-(





Seriously, the Bank Robber is a strong idea, Sandy, I AM going to experiment
with it. Thanks.
