    wwkimba - Purple Marabou Streamer (Variation #1) - HOOK 6X long streamer size 6 (TMC 300), THREAD - black 6/0, UNDERBODY - .30 lead wrap on front third of hook, TAIL & BACK - purple marabou, BODY - purple rabbit dubbing

    HINT: First lay base of thread then wrap and tie in lead wrap (I seal lead with nail polish or Flex cement) then dub body front to back then tie in tail and body. When tying on tail & back very lightly dub tying thread and tie in clumps of marabou (it will take 4-6 clumps). Also, if you find you are crowding the hook gap, substitute a 4X long streamer hook one size larger - i.e. - I could have used a size 4 - 4 XL streamer in this tie.
