hi brian , my nephew caught a 24 inch brown trout on your pattern , he is happy with fly i tied for him just last fall , 2021 , keep tying , vern , love your patterns i use a silver lined red bead found at a quilt store ,
Hey Brian. I was unable to find the 1/8 copper cone at stillester. I bought the5/32 instead along with the medium beads but the beads sit too deep into the cones. I also bought both the maroon and black/maroon Stillwaters dubbing. great fly. I also tied it with gold tungsten beads in place of the cones and the combbo made the red beads really stand out. The extra weight should also help.
