Red Heads

[Danoinark]

Its seems that I have more luck with any pattern on Taneycomo if it has a red head. Any idea why that is? Do you notice the same thing? Seems scuds, soft hackles, even woolies are more productive if tied this way.

Dano-

Are you using glass beads or painted brass beads. I just tied up some midges with red beads tonight that look pretty killer. What other colored beads have you all had success with. Just a tip for some of you out there. I went to Michael's tonight and found that they have an awesome selection of plastic beads. Plus, you can get more beads than you will ever use in your life for $2.50. Also, they have some really nice boxes there for storing beads. I don't know about you all, but seems like my plastic beads are always migrating between compartments. I got some boxes tonight that have each compartment closing separately. They're also cheaper than the Spirit River hook boxes.

I am basically just talking about red thread heads.

I do have some clear glass beads that I use some, and more than that

a multicolor translusent bead called peacock color.
