How do I make these so that I can make sal****er flys in the Blonde pattern, with some weight.

One way to make jig head flies is to wrap the hook with
brass or lead wire. Squeeze it or pinch it with pliers
or do what ever you need to coerce the wire into the shape
you want. Then dribble on some super glue.
