Adding rattles to flies can be a pain, especially on smaller stuff. Over time I've come to prefer shrink tube because it allows you to adjust the position to suit the pattern, offers some protection to the rattle, adds little weight but more importantly it's secure. As a bonus it comes in a variety of colours so you can incorporate it as a hot spot if you wish.

Still on these wee baitfish with the inner colour. Roach imitations for clear water this morning.

It's never a bad idea to copy successful conventional lure colour schemes. When I used to fish lures for perch, this used to be one of my favourite colours of the old fox chubby shads. #flyfishing #flytying #fishing #coarsefishing #coarsefishonthefly #coarsefishonfly #notonlytrout #perchfishing #perch

If there's one thing worth knowing about big perch, it's that they love eating little perch. But then so do most other fish. #flyfishing #flytying #fishing #perchfishing #perch #coarsefishing #coarsefishonthefly #coarsefishonfly #notonlytrout
