[QUOTE="Buzzard Breath, post: 5066309, member: 3158"] I've tied those without any weight other than the weight of the hook and materials, so they'll always ride hook down. Like Mick said, they could easily be tied to ride hook point up. Instead of using stick-on eyes, I could lash in a set of lead dumbell eyes to the top of the hook shank and it would flip the hook over to ride up. If I wanted to, I could also tie them on a jig hook and fish them with a spinning rod. Without any weight, the bottom fly (The Roamer) stays in the surface film. Sometimes it'll sink an inch or 2, sometimes it floats. I don't have to hardly strip it and it has tons of movement. Looks like a struggling minnow on top. [/QUOTE]
