I tied the Kyogihimo kebari by over wrapping the Kyogihimo over a base layer of 3M Temflex Tape. Self fusing tape is another material used by Sebata Yuzo. It helps sink the fly. The tape can be left bare, or over wrapped with some other material, such a peacock or ostrich herl, or thread in various colors.

I saw kebari of this type in a Japanese Headwaters fishing magazine. They were kebari written about in an old book by a Tenkara master fisherman.

Kebari with the hackle toward the hook bend would be a hackle type called a 順毛鉤 (jun kebari) or Forward Kebari. In contrast to the Reverse Hackle or Sakasa Kebari 逆さ毛鉤 .
