One more note on the Mylar flies.
I have tied some up on a #14 Aberdeen hook.
Since dubbing and mylar are naturally bouyant, consider the
use of lead or lead substitute wire under over the dubbing and
under the mylar.
16 wraps us usually enough weight to create a slow sink.
Attach the mylar with about 8 wraps of brown or black thread
to simulate the natural segments of a Wax Worm.[cool]
