Start by forming a layer of thread, push the Magic Head over the hook eye, secure with some wraps of tying thread, then complete the fly. Straight shank hooks recommended. Adjust the size of the Magic Head to the hook size by cutting down, following the edge. Cutting, on the weighted side, we will increase the wiggling effect by 30%. You can weight your flies using beads, cones or eyes. One thing to remember, the cut should always be on the weighted side. Advantages Soft and lightweight head Does not reduce the gap of hooks Streamer action and wiggling action Made from a non-toxic component Easy to tie Does not need a rotating device Will not break or damage the tip of your rod (if accidentally wound back into the rod tip) Recommendations Straight eye hooks are recommended specially for small sizes. When you need to weight your flies: You can use brass or tungsten eyes below the hook shank. Or use heavy wires along the hook shank and bend. Or apply a bead up to the eye before applying the Magic Head. Tying materials on top will keep the weight of the hook bend balanced with the Magic Tool
