Chuck, the anchor/roping starts at the rear bend of the hook.  Exact location is what you want the fly to be.  A caddis larva will have the start a little beyond the curve, so that the tail bends just a little.  A dry fly starts at the base of the tail hackles.
 
Hope this helps.  DonO

DonO: I was watching the rope dub videos today at VFB.. You start the rope dub at the eye end of the hook and go towards the barb end??? or do you go either way depending on the fly you are tying??? My little tiny window that opened, and on 56K modem, that part was hard for me to see..Thanks, Chuck
