I use bead chain as well. You can find a couple different sizes if you look around. I recently found some that are brass color. :cool: IMO, bead chain is easier to deal with than beads or cone heads.

Pup, you will find the smallies with those. Your's look much cleaner tied than mine! lol

AF,

Thanks for recommending white and your compliment on the ties.

I think that a white bugger has some promise. Been seeing traditional browns and greens for too long perhaps. Also, I like using bead chain for a weighted head. Very easy.

BTW, I know that you often use metallic threads. You might try Coats 60/40 Nylon to Polyester blend if you haven't done so already. It's available at many fabric and craft stores. I'm liking it more each time I use it. Small diameter and a pretty strong thread for a sewing metallic.

A guy can't have to many Woolly Buggers. :)
