Twinkee rigs

Has anyone use a single hook with the flies. Before the meat rig setups? I’m seem to have fish hit the flies and not the meat. Thoughts?

Curious, why do you think that they are hitting the flys ?

I’ve had quite a few take the tips and unbutton. Like was never hooked and see the fly was beaten up

One of the other things that happens is they hit the flasher, dodger or spinny especially in the Fall but it can and does happen at other times.

You could snell an octupus hook, add a small bead and twinky ( say, on the last fly) just to experiment?

I had sent some twinky rigs to a buddy who fishes out west on Vancouver Island. He had never heard about them. I sent him a few twinky rigs and a few Rhys Davis heads with MCRockets, he caught fish, but also got cut off by small sharks bitting the flies!
