HARMEN,
I understand your "problems" with the beadheads...how to make the Tye off point look good. Afew techniques loan themselves well to this problem.
1.) If the fly is dubbed up to the bead, leave enough dubbing on the thread to Whip finish the tye off point with the dubbed thread. Apply enough cement to anchor the warps, before you begin the "Dubbing Whipfinish". this take abit of practice, but once it gets going for you, it looks really sweet!!!! there is No head of thread to speak of....
2.)if the fly has a Hackle wrapped at the bead, try to leave a little room at the back of the bead(Larger opening) so you can allow the whipfinish to slip back under the Bead as you whip finish. this will actually take alot of practice to get it right. I find that I'm using a "controlled Looseness" with the tying thread, so it will slip under the bead... I don't know if that description makes sense to you, but it's the best idea that comes to mind for what I'm doing when I tye off that way. Of course you just pinch on abit of Dubbing & whipfinish off the the "Head" that way...
Hope this Helps....
DEAN...
