Tip

Tip: Mark hook proportions, for example dividing the hook into abdomen and thorax sections, so each part stays in its intended space

How to do it: Divide the hook into sections as a visual guide so abdomen and thorax stay in proportion

Mistake it fixes: Tying without proportion guides

Why it works: Proportion guides keep each body section in its intended space, preventing crowded or unbalanced flies.

When it matters most: Fly tying
