It's in the pinch at the tie in point, it has to be firm, no twists or
curves and above the hook. When I first started my apprenticeship my
married wings divorced because i had the lower edge of the married wing
on the side of the hook similar to a feather wing streamer.
The other thing that can cause lot's of trouble is when you cut the
slips, the very edge folds up or down and then the Velcro hooks are in
the wrong position and they won't marry.
And practice, one of the best DVD's is Stack Scoville's or come see him
at the Sowbug!

Just spent the whole day at a workshop learning how to tie married wing
salmon flies. As I went to tie on the married wings, they promptly fell
apart..think they were divorced or something, and the whole thing went
shief ( kaput, south). So, any hints on tying feather wings to keep
them upright and not falling apart..I'd welcome them. Joyce
