This is old info but.... last winter on the Hoh (Feb 2008) noticed a fly guy fighting a nice fish out of a DB. The set up was a straight forward enough an 8 wt. & floating line about a 8' leader strike indicator set @ 6', but here is the strange part.

There was a big red egg/bead about 7 or 8mm pinned on the line about 8" above a 1/16 oz. barbell headed rabbit fur jig.

Dude landed a nice 16-17 lb. buck on it, I have no clue why was the egg pinned to the leader ??
