@@FlyFishFood I guess I mean the angle of the eye. I understand it's not a jig hook. I'd just think on the drift it wouldn't sit the way it's supposed to, it's a question I guess cause I havnt looked at any on the drift. But I'd think with a curved up salmon eye type style hook the fly would run the proper way.
You know I had to make it. It came out good.
looks like an alevin. Great fly!
Cool! I had to look this one up! Thanks. It does, doesn't it?
Does this patter work late November at the certain lakes in Altamont?
Is this effective in other colors?
I'm betting yes!
wouldn't these run better in the water if the thorax was on other side
Not really. It’s not a jig hook

@@jowhi9296 it’s much less to do with the eye and more to do with what’s on the hook.
@@jowhi9296 Trout food tumbles with the current and eddies in the flow. There is no "right side up".
