Trying to find patterns for the following:size 8-12 floating snail
Damsel size 10/12
Dragon size 6/8-12
 
I'm looking for positive "floating" flies, to be fish on sinking line on a 5-6ft leader over weed, either stationary, or with a short 2-4inch pull retreive. Have only found 1 pattern on google search, hoping some kind soul might share theirs.
