Tying slimeless wets.

When you tie those beautiful, delicate flies you don't want them to get slimed by the fish - do you?












Am I kidding - or what?

dd,

My flies never look better than when slimed up - by fish, not drool, that is

That surely must be in the eye of the beholder!

When tying as many flies that you do, is it really possible to slime all of them - the proper way, I mean?

(Every time I tie a fly I feel sorry for the fish and think I ought to have some kind of penalty for un-sportsmanlike conduct since the fish will not stand a chance. When actually fishing, my confidence is not on the same level).
