tz,

I'm sorry, but I was in a bit of a hurry, I am tying classic atlantic salmon patterns with wood duck, amhurst and golden pheasant tails, grey peacock pheasant, and wood duck.
Sounds like fun.

What I heard from someone is that you have to epoxy it.
The sound you heard was likely Geo M. Kelson turning over in his grave... followed by prolonged sobbing.

Is that really all you have to do?
I would say that the general consensus among the classic atlantic salmon fly community is that epoxy has no place in the practice.

These built wings are, well, built. One set of feathers at a time, thread wraps fixing them in place and position/angle.

Stay tuned for Ronn Lucas, Sr. to chime in here.

Thanks for your time.
You are very welcome.

Cheers,
Hans W
