    Default Feb Swap of the Month

    Looks like it is my turn. Glass bead body flies.
    What ever floats your boat.

    Perfect choice for your pan fish. Pattern to be determined...

    Stupid me, I wonder "Glass bead body fly" sounds like you're looking for flies whose bodies are made off glass beads? I know a sensational pattern for trout. With a body off glass beads and dubbing inbetween them.

    Sjo that was the idea. I have two patterns that work very well for me.

    I remember seeing an interesting Matuka tied with beads on here. I'll try to find it and tie it.

    Separate your observations from your preconceptions. See what is, not what you expect.

    I'm in, I think I've seen a glass bead caddis. I'll see if I can find it and tie a dozen.
