Question about flash-flashabou types and sizes

[jawjatek]

So Skip, is the standard size like 1/64"? Pretty thin, looks like the magnum is 1/32". My eyes are old but I'll try to mic it... tomorrow. Gotta get up and go fishing...

Okay here is what I believe...starts with Micro 1/100" with is a couple of theses, then the standard 1/69" or 1/64" (not sure) like we all know, then there is the 1/32" like the Holo Magnum, then there is Lateral Scale which comes in several sizes including 1/69" & 1/16" and the 1/69 is only in Opal Mirage color. I also believe the Saltwater Flashabou is 1/16" also.

On the Holo Magnum they say it's 2 times wider, 2 times longer and 2 times stronger. I just got some this week for the first time so I will give it a shot soon.

What is the stuff that is 1/8" wide then? I'm wanting some of that eventually.

I am the king maybe I was mistaken if I said 1/8", I was thinking the SW was that wide, but then I looked at the SW I have here and it's more like 1/16". Once I actually laid it against my wooden yard stick (lol) it was not 1/8", it was less and about as slice as I can see it's 1/16".

I know I have seen advertised some for 1/8". I will look tonight again.

I just ordered 1/16 . I'm hoping that is what I'm looking for. It's called salt water. You still have to watch what you order and the size. I got burned on that before. I got this off ebay.

I have some Saltwater flash and just got some of the Holo Magnum (1/32), but have not used either yet. Had the SW for a long time, I just have not used it.

Oh you should try some Lateral Scale if you order again, it's awesome looking stuff since it's like segmented looking.

Another pic from searching... OK, Krystal flash. I guess it photographs a little different than it looks in person, or I have bought the wrong stuff. My MegaBass Popper bass lure has some that looks like pearls on a string, way different than the stuff I bought.

Man! Those are beautiful!
