I asked this a day or two ago but it never got there!
Did you tie it in by the tip? ie. with a few feather barbules at the
point of the feather?

I picked up a Hungarian partridge patch a few days ago to tie some

soft
hackle flies. I'm having issues with getting the feather to, well,

do
anything, I guess.

I tie it in, flare the barbules, remove them from one side, and then

wrap.
I
end up with crap.

Am I using the wrong stuff? Is it purely operator error?

Any suggestions would be great.


It would help to know what result your looking for and what you are

getting.
