OK, need some input here. I am trying to get some Griffith gnats ties in 20 down. Problem is the hackle being to long. They look more like a spider than a gnat.
Question, is there a particular place on a pelt that will have suitably small enough feathers for hackles this small? Or do you just use the very tip of a dry fly hackle and hope it is right. I am having a dickens of a time finding brown and grizzly hackle to work on these as well as Wardens Worries down to hopefully 22 or 24 if I can. Thanks in advance. Jimi
