I went to Jamaica recently and was talking to a local fisherman, asked him if he had ever tried fly fishing and he said, "what is that?"

 

 

First, let me learn how to fly fish then I will move to JA and have a monopoly.  GENIUS.

How do you guys secure the beads 1-2 inches above your line?  Do you just tie them on or let them move freely up and down the line? 

 

Thanks

That will fit in a bead?

 

I was told to use a elastic band as a alternative.

If it doesn't....make it...just cut the end thinner. let it go through the hole and pull.

Thanks for the tip on the pegs.  It looks like it works well and is cheap.
