Been using these flies for about 25 years after I saw Lefty regale about its properties and tie it. This is the best video on imparting the bend on the fly that I've run across. Lefty said too much of a bend inhibits the hooking ability. Just feel the bend and stop. I just ignore the body and tie the wing as I am lazy and fish don't seem to care. Plus it drops faster in the column Great video
