I like that. I'll tie some and give them a try on the Welsh Dee this weekend.
How about other colours of tinsel like copper, or even holographic for the head?
Cheers,
Alan.

Alan,
try coloured wires shop.siman.cz/_colour_wire.htm for the head,
holographic tinsel works well in dirty water
Tight lines!
