Now look what you've done. It's forty or more years since I gave up in disgust on traditional winging - could never get the heads right (among other things)- then you come along flaunting your skimpy wets ....

Keep at 'em Bill, you'll get there. Wings can make a big difference.

You know what they say Bill-Practice makes perfect. I used to hate adding on wings-would use hair wings to avoid it, but eventually gave in and now my wings are fairly good-certainly a BIG improvement on when I started out! Unfortunately I don't have a camera to take pics of any samples so you'll just have to take my word for it.

We'll make a full-blooded fly tier out of you yet, Bill!
