So, I am tying up the grannom life cycle and tied up a bunch of CDC and elk using black CDC and dark dun elk hair. I was concerned about the volume of CDC and how the fly would ride on the surface. So I threw a few of them in a glass of water and they all landed on their heads. Do I need to trim the CDC flush and parallel to the shank of the hook to get it to ride correctly?
