Deep Water Egg

I made this egg pattern as a fly that has a good appearance in the water as well as a weighted egg that doesn't need additional weight.

Step 1: Slide an orange led bead onto the hook of the shank.

Step 2: Make a thread base in front of the bead and then make a thread base behind the bead to keep it in place

Step 3: tie down egg yarn

Step 4: fold over the yarn and push it back to make a bubble 

Step 5: repeat step 4 but make the bubble of yarn overtop of the bead 

Step 6: repeat step 4 in front of the bead

Step 7: tie off the yarn and whip finish. Cut both the thread and the yarn.

Finished eggs after put in water.
