Bruce and Cecil, a quick up-date on pellet flies.
If not for Cecil�s pantyhose fly, with actual AQMX pellet, I would have never known that we had 1.5# RES in our �grow-out� pond..
Cecil�s pellet fly sinks to where the RES live - I can�t keep small or larger sizes off the hook.
SERENDIPITY...
Regarding the foam pellet flies, sometimes the darker pellets work best � sometimes the lighter brown works best � maybe same as lures and flies � dark colors cloudy days/ stained water - light/bright colors - clear water � sunny days�
FWIW - Foam pellet fly my over-all choice.
Cecil�s ph pellet fly for special usage...
"It all depends"
Ps: Observe an AQMX pellet fly dropped into a glass of water.
It will swell up and change from a dark brown to a very light color.
