| Lures, Lure Building, & Fly Tying If you use it to catch fish (or at least try), then this is the place for that. If you actually make them, then we really want to hear about your styles and successes. |
What have you got to say about the topic of: "somebody say danny?". Here's how is started: "been messin' around with scales"

| Save the scrap when you trim your (through wire) tail loops. Take the scrap piece of wire and bend an open eye loop in it and leave enough tag end to tie your tail hair!! Saves hooks!! Tip; The trick to a good open eye loop is to form a full loop and cut it to form the opening!! | ||

| Igot... save your siwash hooks...grab some short SS eye screws. If closed, one whack with hammer and screwdriver opens 'em right up. Threads help hold the materials on...just an alternative to cutting good hooks. I used to use eye scews in my plugs until I finally got a clue on center drilling...notice I said a "clue"..still not flawless...so I had quite a few laying around and decided giving them a try...was a good move...waste not want not. And what Charleston said! AND...GREAT LOOKIN' SCALES...AND PLUG. | ||
