Two Bit Hooker

I started fishing the Two Bit Hooker several years ago.  A #8 Peach/Tan Chubby with a #14 Yellow Two Bit Hooker was my go to hopper dropper rig when I lived in Montana. I tie it in several variations and the one below is the one that I keep well stocked in my steelhead general nymph box. Other colors that have produced for me include blue, red, black, yellow and tan along with different combinations of bead colors.
