Rene,
For tapered under bodies I use the cheap floss from a craft/sewing
shop. On the smaller trout flies I find this to be the best. For large
flies I use wool because its cheaper than chenille.

Hi,
when I joined the woven fly part of Rick's 4 swap madness, I already
admitted, that I'm a newbie on woven flies. But a swap is always a good
way to dig into something new.
And I own the fly tier's bible - benchside reference - with lots of
information about weaving. So I'm playing around weaving on small and
larger hooks...
And here is the question: If you want a tapered body, how do you
construct the underbody for such a detail? Dubbing? Foam ? chenille? Epoxy?
