George, btw. Maybe this got lost in my post - but I think the fact that the 'new lure' worked better than your pellet fly is proof that your fish aren't eating your pellets as aggressively as they once were. I know how proud you are of your fish, and don't want you putting up pictures of skinny fish. \:\)

Imagine if I could out fish the pellet fly with just a grub on a jig head??? That's not a good sign for stuffing your fish with pellets for supplemental feeding.
