Catch and Release So Others Can Enjoy Them
I tied em like that for years, and then one day a friend showed me that if you tie in some wire at the back, tie in the body, wrap the body forward, then tie in the BUTT of the hackle at the FRONT, and wrap BACK, and then wrap the wire forward over the hackle, the fly lasts MUCH longer. The browns out here have sharp teeth and cut hackle within the first few fish, usually. The wire counterwrap holds down the hackle in ten or twelve places, rather than just two.
Try it.

I am puzzled as to why it is necessary to clutter up the board with beginner patterns which must be already well represented on the 'net or in [url=http://www.flyanglersonline.com/flytying/beginners/part13.html:b2028]Al Campbell Lessons[/url:b2028]- regardless of how well they are photographed. And do I see that the eye has been crowded somewhat? I think this presentation would be better if it were posted [url=http://www.flytyingforum.com/:b2028]HERE[/url:b2028].

Using your word, PUZZLED, WHY would you say this Tutorial is 'Cluttering Up The BB?' If you don't like the Fly, the Photos, the Color or whatever, that's Fine, but don't try pushing things around!
Thanks,

I'll chime in and add my comment about the pictures. Nice job. I wish more tutorials were set up so well.
What kind of varigated chenille did you use? It looks like yellow-black or yellow-peacock?
