I do them with 6mm booby cord tied in as a tail, 15mm blob fritz for the body, short shank 8 hook.

Yes I have tried them and they work great.Fished them on an intermediate line a few weeks ago and caught trout on them within a few minutes.
You can tie them with booby eyes 5 or 6mm is perfect.

I'll send you a couple,pm me your address.

Cheers
