Owl Jones Fly Swap

Just got my flies in the mail yesterday for the "Monsters of Tying Fly Swap" Owl Jones hosted last month, so pumped to give these foam flies a try this summer!

Via Dub the Thorax (who also participated):

Open question, which do you prefer? I was a huge fan of whip finishing but I've recently started to appreciate the half hitch for avoiding trapped hackle on small dry flies. Which do you prefer and why?

Oh and shout out to Owl Jones for hosting an awesome terrestrial fly swap! Can't wait to use these. 

Boom...Morgan
