Thanks! I like the options of swapping out different hooks depending on the situation and species. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VanH Posted February 26 Author Report Share Posted February 26 30 minutes ago, rich mc said: what size tubing are you using They are slightly larger (OD 3.5mm) than the large HMH tubes (OD 3mm) with a thicker wall that I got from my friend in Colorado. I think he said they were acupuncture tubes. To get the jig tube shape I carefully heat it up with a lighter and bend to the angle I want. For my Mr Wiggly tube flies I use a small HMH tube.
