New to tying, Im having a hard time doing the wings on a royal trude, I am using cows hair and making a parachute then doing a figure 8, Then I wrap grizzly hackle around the wings.
I keep having the cows hair all over the place. Any tips would be appreciated. I have no problem doing everything else on the fly but when doing the hackle and the wings that is what makes the fly not look so good. Question: when wraping the grizzly hackle do you start tying from the stem( big side) or from the smaller side then start wraping around the fly.


Thx
