My brain never seems to take a rest. I am always thinking on how to do. Sometimes, I wake up from a dead sleep and an idea comes to me. This drives me nuts, cuz I just cant let it go. I sat today and had a picture in my head. What I needed to do this fly tie goby.Sure the first offs are not as planned or for seen, but once I have something stuck in my head,I have to at least try. I fish shallow waters for white fish,so big weight is not really important to me. Also thinking that a light weight fly like this,they will pick it up and not feel much weight in their mouth. Then they feel the hook set.
My first attempts.
Some shanks are wrapped with lead, then I found some old weights I had . They worked perfect.
Now for the white fish season to open to give them a try.
