When wrapping the hackle, do you find any difference between wrapping
the two colored hackles separately, or at once?


Hi riverman,
Separately gives you more control about where the hackle is placed .
. . and I suggest you use a hackle pliers for the smaller creations. I've
done, as I suspect many here have done, played around with
options. (but I have done a twisting technique for some patterns . .
.commercially . . .as I recall . . .but not sure if ever went into
production . . .not relevant for here)
Uhh . . .tie two. . .different versions. . . show them to us. You
may tell the difference yourself. I sure can. snip


I forgot to say that in my reply. Doing the hackles one at a time cetainly
produces a better looking fly to us humans, but I've not seen any difference
astream. So. . . tying for a swap, I'd do the one-hackle-at-a-time method,
for my fly box, the easier of the two. ;-)
