Along a similar note that is why I like to tie my fly to the leader with a snug knot, not one of those loop ones that allows the fly to dangle around.

A stiffer heavier leader with a snug knot gives me more control over what my fly is doing not just guessing and letting it flop in the breeze.

I like it when I can hold the leader between my fingers in front of the fly and the fly stays horizontal, not hanging 90 degrees from the leader.

I like fly control, not a quick fix.
