It's probably six of one, half a dozen of the other for me. Once a fly starts to fall apart, I usually strip the materials off and recycle the hook. The nice thing about the "biots" is they tie up fast, so the fact that they come apart after a couple dozen fish really doesn't bother me too much. At that point, the fact that they easily unravel become a positive for recycling.
