I have a feeling those black ones with the glow bead will destroy at Sylvan...just sayin :)

Nice work.

Nice work. Don't see any green or pink in there ?

Happy where did you buy green gloving beeds that you have on black WW?
They are different than ones from Michaels ( I believe)

Those look amazing, I am looking forward to using my home made styles to see how they do. Just figuring out whether we going to Gull or sylvan to start the white fishing season. What a conundrum to have right???:angry3:

update!!!

So i had a extra hdmi cable and sliced it open!!! good colors!! problem is the wire is a bit thin and springy....so wont hold well. luckly i gad head cement and coverd them in that. I made Rickys orange yellow candy canes and kim pink and green WW

amature hunter...those beads i think i got at wholesale sports last year. they are called soft glow beads size 1. style sgb1-28. Call fly shops they might have them....or even order online...beads are made by falcon

Happy put one soft glow green bead on red WW.
Zip gave me one couple years ago on Gull , and white fish showed right away ( as soon as I dropped it down)

i tied some of those in this thread very first post...but ok ill tie more of those tomorrow!!!bead on head or tail?

tnx

happy

Bead on head or tail do you guys think it makes a difference ?

The bead to the head. A wary whitefish will usually circle the head of a hook and take the wire worm from the unbeaded tail end with the hook. And sometimes feeding whitefish just come in fast and hard from any angle. A beaded tail might be hard to have the hook stay horizontal on light line.
In February when lingcod are laying eggs, a copper colored bead on the tail end might be good. Lincod have copper colored eggs and the whitefish gobble them up. A few years a go someone on the the forum posted a good video of several whitefish following a spawning burbot in Sylvan lake.

Aside from wireworms, try some tiny yellow rubbertail jigs too.
