Another rookie question
Hello, I have been tying a ton of teasers and have teh same problem. After a few hits, the wrap and the hair slides dwon the hook. How do you anchor the fly to the hook so that it does not slide down?

I would add that you don't want to wrap to much stuff at the same time : one layer of fiber or bucktail, wrap, glue, then another one, etc...
And it will help the hair/fiber stay in line with the hook, not open like an umbrella, when you use long bucktail, which has a large hair diameter.

make sure you putdown a good layer of underwrap, use a strong thread( kevlar or rod wrapping thread ) and wrap tightly. and like AZ said, don't wrap too much at once.

Excellent suggestions, I will try this week. I have been wrecking an average of 5 teasers a week on bass and blues!

RIJ..
I tie rough flies on big hooks for teasers...
I use underwraps, and then cover the threads and up to the bottom of the eye with devcon 30min epoxy...
works for me....
