I had tied up size 4 7x, with a trailer. It was a very big fly that was supposed to pull in some huge walleye from the peg, but all I got was drum. So I kept on fishing for drum.
They fight well in the bigger size.

Yeah I have heard of the otolith. I know with salmon you need to cut it out and use a microscope to see the small rings on the statoconium. Oh jeez man, I can't wait to see some pictures of those guys!

No I haven't. It is good stuff? I love the synthetic hair out there these days.
I wanted to make some Great Lakes Shiners the other month, but I couldn't find any ghost hair, so I bought the DNA fibre and fell in love with it haha. Still looking for ghost hair though.
