Title states the question. I have been doing deceivers and bass bugs spinning deer hair on bare metal shank. I picked up a book the other day that said "experts" agree that it is easier to spin deer hair on a hook shank that is covered with a thread body.

Well I guess that makes me NOT an expert. I know I can try this myself on my own hooks. But it would be interesting to hear opinions from the FAOL world.

Is it iasier to spin deer hair..and PACK it on a bare shank....or on a thread body?

tks
