[quote flygoddess]I usually use Scud hooks although, a straight hook can be more realistic.
As of last summer, I did start to use the Tiemco 200R. Love that hook. Use it for allot of flies. I don't know about the thinness of the hook...have yet to have one break.

Many years ago when I was fishing the San Juan 15 to 20 times a year, I developed a double midge pupa pattern that I believe was tied on a Tiemco 200 [crazy] not 100% sure. It worked really well when the midges were hatching.
I've never considered an articulated version nor had I ever considered using a larger version of my old double midge for stillwaters. Darn you FG, you've got me thinking about new patterns [cool]
