snboggs 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 I think the wing's a bit long though. Should be able to see the tail at the end of the wing. I'll give it another go tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flytire 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 work on the thread wraps in the head area. you want them to be smooth. and clean up any stray fibers near the eye. looks like some butt ends of the red hackle is showing. any red hackle for the tail?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snboggs 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2008 Yeah there is red in the tail, but I said I tied the wing to long so its not visible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
