“Trap wrap” is a great name for the technique of bending the material back over itself & wrapping it again. It makes a more durable fly. I think we should all call that. Kudos.

Nice simple pattern. I am in wet fly tying mode right now. Going to add a few of these to the box. Great tutorial and thank you for sharing. Question for you. What brand of hackle pliers are you using? I am have a tough time finding something that I like. Thanks again Hugh for the nice session and stay safe!!
