Subject: [VFB] Winger flys

Dono, was just looking at your pictures of winger Mayflies, and am wondering if the wings are tied in prior to the hackle or after?  And what the process is for getting the wing to stand in this upright position?  Thanks for your help.

The wings are tied in after the body and before the hackle, back-to-back at the same time, using the thread to pinch and position them upright.  Then I wrap the hackle snugly in front of and in back of the wings a couple of times to lock them in place.  I do not figure-8 between the wings.
