I know this belongs in the fly tying section but I posted here because I didn't think anyone would see it in the fly tying section for a few days.
I have noticed recently that the dry flies that I have tied get boggy and that the dubbing on the thorax/abdomen ends up soaking up alot of water.
I typically lay the dubbing on my thread, dubb it, and then tie it on. I am wondering if I am either using to much dubbing or not enough dubbing wax.
Anyone with any suggestions and tying techniques to stop the fly dubbing from getting water logged so quickly?
