mash barb/start thread; tie in rib, wrap to bend




measure (gap width past bend) a clump of marabou; tie in, wrap to front (1 eye width back from eye), keeping everything as smooth as possible for the tinsel






tie in tinsel; wrap to tail and back with touching turns (use as much tension as you can), tie off/trim
