I like to tie the flies that I use and WORK! Some are small and some are more than 6 inches long (Musky flies). But when I haven’t tied a certain fly in awhile I always give myself three ties before I feel good about each fly. Keep a single edge razor blade on your tying desk and remove the material and start again if it isn’t “right”. I also will keep the old flies that are torn up, use the razor blade and use the hook again.
