    I like the dragon fly. You seldom them tied in anything but blue and most of what I see are green and brown. Did you seal the tail to keep it from frazzling?

    no i didnt, but now that you mention that.... lol... do you think it would be worth that material to slip a foam strip inside the tail before sealing?

    thanks guys, as always, appreciate the comments.

    I would probably put a coat of clear nail polish on it and let the air inside float it, trying to insert foam might result in misshaping and frazzling the end.

    Here is something I put together a little while back. Not really much tying to it more sliding and sealing. I think this was a No. 6 hook, coated with Fabric Fusion and then nail polish, one coat of epoxy would also work well.
