I have an opposite story.Last year on my favorite zipperlip my hardware couldn't catch anything but late silvers.I could see the metalheads sitting with the hooknose but couldn't get them to chase.I finally switched to eggs and BLAM!Learned the same lesson.This unfortunatly came after several weekends of canyon hiking in the rain!Rough lesson.This year I am going to add flys to the equation,oh boy.
