Once again, a video that is rich in technique and demonstrative of a great western fly pattern. I wonder if there is an easier wing fiber to use the blends together more easily, like polar aire or Puglisi fibres, etc. Or maybe a small wire brush would shorten the time it takes to get the wing right. Just some ideas for you. I will say that I always learn something from your videos. Thanks.

Thanks for checking it out! You can certainly brush it out a bit more and/or leave the first wing a bit longer so it blends. I do find that once it takes on a little water it melts together to form one wing. Great insight and appreciate the feedback.
