Sometimes simple is best

[Kevin22]

In a world full of 'latest and greatest', dont forget that simple still works. Little pinch of calf tail is all you need sometimes. This one is 1" long, going to use them for bluegills mostly.

You are so correct. I remember when I was a kid I would fish with a small hook, split shot and a piece of bologna skin from the meat shop up the street. Many of gills became supper off of that. Ole Jake would give me a couple slices of meat and I would take him b'gills once in a while. Really miss those simple times.

Dumbbell or bead eyes? Kiptail? I do something similar also. Gills can't resist!

Brass dumbbell, just enough weight to get it to sink subsurface. Ive used them for years on regular tackle, cant wait to use the fly rod this year.
