    Your posts are superb. You gotta know that after a hard day of work, to look at your pics is a real pleasure. I am kind of getting interested in this clear goo and blue light stuff. Is it similiar to Tuffleye??

    You do good work son!!

    I think a short #12 "caddis/scud/midge/egg" hook like a 2457/2487 is more like a 14/16 standard nymph hook in length.

    The TMC 2457 is our top selling hook at Kiene's.
