Morrowboarder 0 Report post Posted June 17, 2015 I love it. I've been trying a lot of flies based off your work shown on the website, great to see you post here. I tied a cicada imitation for the 7 year hatch a while back and mine was twisting up my line bad. I'll have to give this a go, thanks! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you are using a hard tape wing... it will definitely twisting the tippet... that's why I use only fibers or flashabou. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
