What have you tied today?

They are deadly Dave. Simple and efficient. I sometimes add a tungsten bead.

I was going to get all fancy and use thread  :shock: but I'll fire wire into a bobbin and do them that way, might even do paul a couple and see how the Patagonian monsters like 'em!

Andy, you don't even need a bobbin. just wire and wool. it's the bollocks!

Are the butts wrapped with copper?

you just wrap wire down the shank as you would to start off thread. build up some body if you wish. catch in some wool with the wire. build up the body with the wool, use the wire to catch in the end of the wool and do a few more wraps of wire to finish. you can add a dab of varnish if you wish....

Very nice Allan/Paul never have much luck with snatchers for some reason

A favourite of mine too, a black 14 fished slow got me a nice fish on watten. I've fished them loads the last couple of years.

In fact that fish on my profile was a snatcher too, cow dung sort of colour
