I found beads at Walmart super cheap. They are just plastic but they fit on small hooks and they have a ton of good colors.

<p>I saw those pics! Nice fishing! I haven't caught a Drum on the fly, yet. Haven't caught a Crappie, either.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I know someone that uses this for their signature, "If it swims and it eats, it will take a Fly." No mention of "fish".........</p>
<p></p>
<p>At least your bugs are catching fish.</p>

<p>I tried using some size 8 Clousers a few days ago. Didn't get a bite, but.....</p>
<p></p>
<p>Did catch several fish on my jigs I've tied up.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I think I'm going to basically tie some Crappie jigs, but instead of a jig, use some of those 3xl size 8 "general purpose" hooks that I have, and do a bead-head on them.

<p>Of course, I've lost my brass beads. I think I left them out the last time I tied, and of course, my kid cleaned off the table the next day, and chucked everything. Now I need to replace my beads. Luckily they're cheap.</p>
