Has any one used troutbeads? They are beads that look like realistic fish eggs. I'm planning a trip to Alaska in August and one of the guides highly recommends them. They are tied onto the line without a hook directly attached. The hook is tied one and a half to 2 inches below the bead. The say the fish will inhale the bead bringing the hook below along into it's mouth. Just wondering if it's worth my time ordering some and giving this technique a try.
