> Doug I use wing burners quit often on nymphs and mayflies. For mayflies I like the Streamlife Innovations Wing Burners and for nymphs I use the Renzetti wing burners. I have found the results to be very satisfactory. The smell of burning feathers can be offensive to some. If this is the case go out to the garage or out of doors. I prepare the sets of feathers and burn them all in one session. I have used nail clippers and scissors to trim feathers and this is also satisfactory but I find it a little difficult to get the symmetry I am looking for with his method. Regards Mel
