| Tying Instructions |
- Start thread behind eye and advance 1/8-3/16".
- Tie in post material. I use a strand 1/2 the size I want my finished post to be, and loop it under the hook shank. Then tie in with figure 8 wraps.
- Take thread on down shank to halfway down bend. Start dubbing body and work back up to back of post.
- Take thread to front side of post and tie in hackle with butt of quill extending toward eye. Tie hackle up post to about 1/16"-3/32" high, dull side up.
- Tie in peacock at eye of hook and wrap back to post. Tie off.
- Now wrap hackle 3 or 4 turns around post, with each wrap under the preseding wrap. Tie off around post with a whip finish, trim as necessary, and go catch one.
