thats up to you; soon you wont be allowed to add split-shot to your leader in the upper fly so it's something to consider. bunny leaches are hard enough for me to cast once their wet without the extra weight so i've stopped weighting them and use polyleaders instead (ive also converted to 2-handers for my SR fishing so that helps). a *little* extra weight on the fly (especially a bulky one) will help the weighted leader or split shot do their job, but too much is just a bear to deal with.
i'll often add a bead (brass, tungston or plastic) in front of a bugger or leach for extra weight or flash.
Allen, those flies are all too pretty for me to fish comfortably; i wouldnt want to leave them hanging in a tree.
