I think that the double hooks can be a pain for the angler and can make removing the hook from the fish that much more difficult = trouble for the fish. I would clip the first hook and leave the trailer personally. Dig the beads though.

Been out chironie fishing over the past several weeks and having a great time. Here are just a few of the patterns I have used.

Still playing with Chironomids. Decided to experiment with the lighting. Here's a few taken under a UV light.

I had a feeling it was j son wing material. Pretty slick stuff!!

 

Did you order the wings online or is there a local distributor?

Actually I was sent the materials a while back after doing some demo tying, I test materials for a few companies. They do produce some very realistic materials.
