Jason Meyer

Notes on tying:

*Optional: You can also add a small brass bead on the head and/or some small hackle fibers for a tale.

*Note: If you do not use a bead head, you will want to build up a head with the dubbing. Even if you are using a bead, you still should put wire on it for more weight. This is a bottom fly, and the bluegills slam on it, especially during the spawning season.
