Where's The Weight
#14
I will generally use the lead wire underwrap on my flies. Most of my flies are heavy to begin with since they are fished in saltwater.

Many of my hooks are in the 2/0 to 8/0 range. That sounds pretty heavy to beging with but once you get dubbing and all other materials on there, the tend to become more neutrally bouyant which inhibits the decent in the salt water.

Under wraps and sometimes the addition of some weight forward beads can help get the fly down in the zone.[cool]
