How in the world would ya tie that?? Under a microscope??
No, you tie them when you're young!
Or get your neighbor's six-year-old to tie it for you like DonO did.
If you notice on his website, Don himself can't tie on anything less
than a 100/0 whale hook!

Here's a real sized 32 fly, and there's more on my website
www.fantasyflies.com
Tiemco sells what they call a size 32 but it's the size of a Mustad 28,
quite large.
