Tip

Tip: Wrap the body from the front and then back to even it, and keep the body fairly thin

How to do it: Wrap bodies front then back to even them, keeping them fairly thin

Mistake it fixes: Wrapping bodies in one direction, leaving them thick and uneven

Why it works: Front-back wrapping evens the body. Thin bodies give a slim, natural profile.

When it matters most: Fly tying, bodies
