Aye when i first got them was thinking about that Martin, but looks like a lot of work went into tying them so dont want the rocks to smash them...unless absolutely necessary!!

[bja]

[bja]

Aye, better be a full floater for me then!

Can be fished with any line, but the problem is the amount of drag they create. As such this drag creates lift, which as a result the flies are inclined to fish quite high in the water. When fished with a floating line they can have a tendency to skate when fished in anything but a slow current. I would therefore recommend a sinking line, tip or appropriate polyleader in order to get them down in the water. The density depending on the flow and pace of current being fished.
