Tip

Tip: Adjust wraps for sparseness, using one or two wraps

How to do it: Control sparseness by adjusting wrap count, using one or two wraps for sparse flies

Mistake it fixes: Using many wraps regardless of desired sparseness

Why it works: Wrap count controls material density. One or two wraps give sparse flies that move well.

When it matters most: Fly tying, sparseness
