Part 3

apply some dubbing and dub thorax; return thread to position at base of post










start wrapping hackle from the top of the post down










let the hackle hang down; take 2 turns of thread at base of post, trapping hackle







half hitch x2 at hook eye, SHHAN, trim wing post and you're done










Need to work on body taper; wider turns to start, closer together to make it a bit thicker at the base - I think. A few less tail fibers would probably be in order, too; I'll play around a little. Don't know that I'd go much smaller than a #14.
