Yes, but not with marabou - haven't tried it yet. f.f.i take a look at my pattern on Deer Creek - Home page in the trout dries section at the end of the page

Yep, blue, orange or sunburst, are popular catchers at some of the venues i visit especially with a couple of strands of krystal flash for an added attractor.

I've bagged up within an hour using the blues. so stopped using them, it was too easy, i prefer smaller flies, or using wets, i find theres more chance of tempting the odd brown with them.

Best regards
Jim
