Any suggestions from Master Tyer's would be greatly appreciated!


No master myself, but I believe I could hide a box of a hundred size 12
short shank hooks pretty effectively in a 6" long by 7/8" wide strip of just
about anything. Personally, I think you did well to wind up with something
that bears even a passing resemblance to a fly.
