"riverman" wrote in message oups.com... 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. ;-) -- TL, Tim ------------------------ http://css.sbcma.com/timj/ |
