Chris Helm and Glenn Weisner tie an assortment of very popular flies using a wide range of different hair, including calf body hair, calf tail, moose body hair, elk hair, whitetail body hair, bull elk, cow elk and elk mane. Gel spun thread and material selection are highlighted along with using the correct side of a Peacock stick and tying off the parachute hackle on the wing post. The adult stone showcases a half bullet head technique, the Stimulator shows tying with hair for tail/wing/body and the Elk/CDC illustrates a durable way of setting an elk hair wing on a small hook.
