Have you ever had a perfectly good practical joke go wrong? Well, that is how we ended up with the clear bead on the market. After a number of lengthy debates with good friend and excellent guide Grant Scheele regarding the importance of color when selecting beads I came up with a test to solve the debate. Grant was of the belief that in his river system profile and shape were more important than color. I contended that while profile and shape were important color definitely played the key role. In order to test out my theory, I made a batch of clear beads of different sizes. Then I told Grant that I had some new colors and asked if he would like to test them out and the sent him a real nice pro pack of clear beads. Unfortunately, I did not foresee that Grant would fish them and soon after the number of clear bead caught steelhead photos I received proved that Grant may have been more right than I would have thought. 8mm: 15 beads, 10 custom T-stops 10mm: 10 beads, 10 custom T-stops 12mm: 10 beads, 10 custom T-stops 14mm: 10 beads, 10 custom T-stops 16mm: 10 beads, 10 custom T-stops 20mm: 8 beads, 10 custom T-stops WARNING: Cancer and Reproductive Harm – www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.
