I for one am SOOOOOooo glad Hans took the time to make those videos. He does so many things in tying that make me go, "Now how the h*** did he do that?" When he gives up his techniques I feel like a thief trying to use them...

A great technique for finding out if your using quality materials...... the cheap stuff snaps when you twist it befor it becomes a rope!
Works with the good stuff though

. Thanks for sharing Hans.

LOL - I have
no time for tying secrets, nor those who are so small minded to withhold from others what information they can share
Cheers,

A very nice simple fly and technique Hans.
I wholeheartedly agree with you about secrets.
