How do you wrap the catgut so well? And are you putting uv resin ontop of the catgut for shimmer? Reply ↓
Hi Eric. I keep the catgut in water for 3-5min and I simply use it. I don’t use resins. In this photo the fly is wet. You can tie this fly in maximum 3 min Reply ↓
Hi Krzysztof, I used dye for catgut. But you can use also pro markers in the colors that you want. The catgut can be found in this color here : http://www.troutline.ro/catgut.html cheers, Lucian Reply ↓
