I took a DB smelt, removed the trebel and left the snap ring on, then tied my leader to that and a fly on the leader. Thinking this would be a mini dodger to give some action to the fly. Caught nothing but i still think its a good idea, Need to mes with the combo.

John, have you heard of the mepps bantam syclops they claim if you tip the single hook with something the action is better. They have some at paugus bay. Ive been meaning to try one as I never hear people talking much about using them. Even if you dont tip it, it may be a hot lure.
