When I tie flies, I have a real problem keeping hackle fibers out of the whip finished head. I find myself picking hackles fibers out of the finished head with tweezers before I apply head cement. I'm curious about how to use a "Hackle Guard." I use a Matarelli Whip finish tool, but that takes two hands for me to use. If I use a "Hackle Guard" how should I keep track of all my hands?
Silly question looking for an intelligent answer.
