Mac, that is great you posted that. This weekend I was fishing Chironomids and two colors were KILLer all weekend. Well, actually 3, Mojo was using a chrome with red flashabou Ice Cream and killing them for a couple of hours, but the two that kept me in business was a Black and Blue with a black tungsten bead (the Bruise) and the other that caught more fish than any, a Brown and Yellow wire with a Gold bead,
Anyway, I lost my last one to a jumping monster so I dug through my boxes trying to find something close, and it was the original Copper John except it had white rubber legs. I think it would have worked with or without the legs cause it ended up legless and was still getting hammered.
Got to love the basics:
Haresear
Prince with and with out bead
Pheasant Tail with and with out bead and with and with out flashback
Copper Johns in Copper, Red, Green, Blue, and Chartreuse.
In the right size, they will always produce.
