Masami Tenkarano-oni Sakakibara posted his flies image at Facebook. I've tied and tested biotbody&roosterhackle pattern at Gamakatsu Senio Tenkara hooks - this simple kebari is really effective. The story is too long for the forum post, I've placed it to TTT blog www.tenkaratimes.co.uk/tenkara-blog/thestoryaboutonikebari |

Very nice flies. Biot bodies have been growing in popularity recently. I've examples posted here on the forum that use them. They are quite fragile with trout teeth so I recommend they are wound over a waterproof superglue to give them a chance of holding together.
My preference is for barbless hooks from an ethical standpoint so I won't carry any with barbs.

You are right, Cust. I always attach biot by glue, for this pattern also. And, sure, everybody at this forum knows how to make barbless hook from barbed.  |

Barbless from barbed ... There's a whole can of worms you just opened ... and we are fly fishing!
One for a new thread that I think.
