Loren Williams @ FlyGuysOutfitting offers a good tutorial on the pinch wrap. The pinch wrap counter acts the pulling or pushing of the material off the top of the hook shank to the far side of the hook; mostly caused by a loose hold of the material and the torque of the bobbin across the top. The pinch wrap is more of an up, across the top and down move.
