I have not had any shredded ...YET. But like any fly, that is why they are so cheap. they are not meant to last forever.
I have had Hackle come undone or break.
I think it will be just fine, as it is a tight wrap.
Macfly, I got the idea to try silk when I say someone built a rod and wrapped with white, but did not add color preserver. It looked like he had no wraps. like the guides were just sitting there.
Cool effect although not one I would do, but I started thinking about a fly. Like Red under Yellow...an Orange effect. The red under white...looks like a vein.
I don't have any yet, but I was thinking BLUE thread under Yellow Silk...could give an awesome GREEN.
