biots - Dryrod - 10-05-2010 [font "Comic Sans MS"][#008000]I seem to have a problem when it comes to tying on a pair of goose biots for feelers. The only way that I can keep them from becoming one is to glue them into position before tying them in. Anyone have any suggestions or tips to offer otherwise?[/#008000][/font] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] biots - flygoddess - 10-05-2010 A ball of dubbing, but nothing wrong with the gluing idea. Might even make them stronger. [signature] Re: [flygoddess] biots - macfly55 - 10-05-2010 odd you should say that sis.. I saw that trick on line when I was looking on how to tie a cates turkey fly.. according to what they said a very small ball of dubbing helps to hold the turkey feather in place and in the case of tail feathers helps to seperate them at the same time..
