HEY JB PLUS,

 The only problem with booze in the freezer it takes up storage space for gill and crappie filets!!!!!!! SOLUTION= Buy an extra freezer as I had too and don't forget were you put the nerve tonic!

HEY GREG,

 My favorite is the purple bead head and a vvvvvvvvvvery close second is the green and black micro. I knew there was something I like about you   CROWN ROYAL!!! I tried keeping it in the freezer in my garage but kept forgetting it was out there and wound up haveing two or three open at the same time!

Thanks everyone for the comments on my bugs. On the bead heads with legs I use a #10 long shank light wire hook . I bend the eyes down and put on the bead . I believe the hooks are a mustad 3261 ,  bead is 1/8 " nickel. I get them both from Netcraft in Ohio. I've tried different sizes of Chenille but Medium works best. The bugs MICROS with out legs are tied on a mustad #10 dry fly hook light wire. Can't remember the number on it now.

 They all fall SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSlowly and that's the secret , as far as I'm concered anyway, for their success for the past twenty + years.

  THANKS
