Okay. Okay. Now this might sound, well, silly, but if my experience is any indication, IT really works:Smile: I read online recently, don't even remember what site, that a guy suggested tieing a piece of RED ribbon or yarn (about two - three inches) near the eye of the hook, or just above the hook on the leader material .. According to him, this will appear to the fish as though the bait (plastic, cut bait, whatever) is bleeding. I can only tell you this, the number of hits I'm getting since 1st doing it, has increased 3-4 fold!! Hey, give it a try, and see what you get ...

Oh sh$t. That's actually pretty bad-***. officially the world's laziest fly, but dang. I'm never buying sabikis again.
