Complete fusion (CF) and incomplete fusion (ICF) reactions were studied with the beams of loosely bound {sup 6}He and {sup 6}Li bombarding {sup 166}Er and {sup 165}Ho targets. Experiments were carried out to test an approach exploiting the measured intensities of {gamma} rays emitted at the transitions between the yrast-band levels of reaction products formed after the termination of neutron evaporation. Partial waves feeding the CF [{sup 165}Ho({sup 6}Li,5n){sup 166}Yb, {sup 166}Er({sup 6}He,6n){sup 166}Yb] and ICF [{sup 165}Ho({sup 6}Li,{alpha}3n){sup 164}Er, and {sup 166}Er({sup 6}He,{alpha}4n){sup 164}Er] reaction channels were revealed from the obtained {gamma}-ray data.
