Does anyone cut wings from materials such as "Web Wing"? I've cut a few wing sets out for size12 and they tie easy enough and (I think) look good. But it's what the fish think that counts.

Anyone use this or something similar??

Thanks
 
Yes - I've been using this stuff for a long time.

Mostly for spinner wings. Makes for a more realistic looking fly, that works better on picky fish IMO
One drawback - in larger sizes, it can cause the the fly to spin, and twist your tippet. Wanna use a heavier line then

Also use it tied tent style for caddis and stonefly wings
