vicrider 0 Report post Posted June 19, 2023 It does on one side but the other side can stick out. For me it's an anal thing that I don't like to have one side fall out with the sharp edge. Kind of like all the trimming I do because of how I need every fly to look as neat as possible before I throw it out or razor it clean. Edit to add, if you look at the picture closely you'll the see the sharp edge sticking out of the bead on the silver one on lower left and far right. That edge is sharp and I've found anything sharp except the hook point can find it's way to the leader when fish twist and squirm pretending they don't like the hook.
