    I was hoping for feedback on this. I have seen famous tiers say to tie in the wings at anywhere from the 2/3 to the 3/4 point of the hook shank.......on the same or similar pattern.
    Correction, I checked, i place the wing at about the 70% mark of the hook shank.

    Perhaps Narcodog, who still has a FlyCraft gauge could look at the instructions on the back and let us know what it says and produces in terms of wing placement on the hook shank?
