How do you do the wing? This has always stumbled me.

If you don't mind me asking, what's the mayfly tailing material? It looks like microfibbits to me, but I don't think that's the case.

Ty Flyer: they are synthetic Mayfly Tails (don't have any manufacturer or names other than that)

 

FlyTyer15: I do it pretty much like this:

but instead of making a wingpost I have more deer fibers and try to tie it in so that when I bring them back again they fan out.
