A few years ago I tied up some 12's using mixed colors of dubbing and had just tremendous success. On some I used a little micro hourglass weight, same one I use on my micro Clousers. Thanks for the reminder. I tied up some Jitterbees last year, thanks to Roger Stouff, using pieces of bass skirt for a tail. That's work here as well. The Jitterbee was an excellent fly, by the way, showing that our German-Norwegian "sunnies" like 'em about as well as the Cajun brim. JGW
