HI Don,
Thanks for the great vids! I learn so much from them :)
Would you use this for the Columbia? My inlaws live in Castlegar and I'm always looking for patterns to try.
Thanks

Is this fly supposed to float in the surface film??
I tried a couple and they sink pretty fast -beads too big??
thanks
