Chris,
I usually do not use those winding checks. What I do to get a neat
transition from the grip to the blank, is to wrap the 'Winding Check'
with thread. Form like the head of a fly on a very thick hook (Now it's
tying reletaed <G>). Soak and coat it with epoxy. You can play with
colos and style, and even mix colors.

Well...Sarah doesn't get back from Yosemite until tomorrow night. I took
advantage of the extra "free time" to wrap my first fly rod. Only problem
is that my winding check is just a bit too large for the rod (1/16" or so).
Does anyone have any suggestions, or do I just need to buy (i.e. order)
another one?
Uh....to keep this fly TYING related....uh....I used thread for the rod
wraps.
