Probably need a few more Utube demos - but riddle me this - all those beads and heads - how do you get them on the hook?
I've been trying some - but have a hard time getting them over the barb or around the bend. I know a lot of fly-ers like to go barbless - but do you bend a hook straighter, then back?
Maybe my beads don't have big enough inner diameter...
as said, nice work. so where do you get your patterns from? I've got some books I've looked at to get ideas, and then go off and make something completely different!!
