Step 9 - trim the tail
Now cut the tail off
In my experience it has proven very well to:
- let the body material end in the position of the hook point
- and end with the bobtail where the arch is
Following this instruction you get a rather small fly in comparison to the size of the hook. But as long as I fish these flies I got more hook-ups and lost quite less fish then before. And on the other hand it seams to me, that a larger hook doesn't bother the fish at all
