    That would really work well for Half-pounders..........cool.

    Size 8, 10 and 12 are the hook size range that most use for these little chrome rockets.

    Nice! Id bet the half pounders would be swarming that fly, perfect for the lower Rogue right now! Great looking fly, and very well tied too.
