    Default T.N.T. Hopper Legs - Tying Directions

    Any one have experience tying with the T.N.T. Hopper Legs?

    How do you tye them in?

    How do you adjust for Hopper Size?

    Thanks in advance.

    Very interested in hearing some opinions as well. I bought them for size 10 hoppers and noticed they create friction when you cast so they made the fly spin, no matter how I adjusted them I had the same problem so I just used silly legs from then on. Hoppers look great with these tho.

    so many relatively inexpensive materials tie up as effective hopper legs i can't see that i'd try tnt legs. maybe for realistic tiers they'll be useful. remember the plastic covered hoppers that one of the big name lure manufacturers (the name escapes me)? they didn't provide any sort of alternative to natural hoppers. tnt legs look to me to be in the same vane as the plastic hoppers of yesteryear. however i'm sure someone will discover a method of tying that'll make them work effectively and be all over extolling the virtues of realistic tying.
