To get the full potential of Devaux's
QUILL CLEANFLY, it is recommended to pair this material with a colored thread base or a fine tying thread to achieve precise segmentation. The tie can be finished with a thin coat of varnish or UV glue to increase the fly's durability. Ideally, using a discreet weighted head is advised for nymphs to optimize sink rate, while for dries and emergers the quill integrates perfectly without overloading. Wrapping in touching turns produces a regular and attractive body, reinforced by using fine dubbing or targeted hackle.
