ok Fishmonger :) :)

no matter your religion a hell of a lot of trout fall to beadheads every season and if trout aint coming up then ya gotta go down.
now heres the question, have u ever seen a winged beadhead ?

heres more food for thought, is the tail on no 3 a tail or a wing - we call it a tail because of its position on the hook - don't mean a trout sees it as a tail... hmmmmmm

Sure there is no accounting for what a sasenach will design and tie on a hook :)
It has a tail and a wing and a body but it aint a flea.
