    I understand Duck. However, I personally prefer thread/silk dubbing loops. More delicate.

    In addition, there are certain nuances in the Leiserling/Hidy/others' method. They wanted just a hint of the silk thread to show through. In addition, they desired large heads formed from the tying thread on their flies.
