GlobalFisher 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2005 Here is my second attempt. I just got all the right materials and tied this much better one. I was using pheasant as a substitute to the goose biots on the tail but I now have the brown goose biots for the tail. I also figured out how to do both the tail and wingcase with the goose biots. I learned that you have to put the two fibers in the opposite direction with their bend to make the tail. And kinda the same thing with the wingcase. Makes ya feel good inside when you do something right! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GlobalFisher 0 Report post Posted August 31, 2005 Thanks bentflyrod. The thing that makes me use so much thread at the head is the wings. When I go to cut them off there is still excess sticking out and I wrap thread over it so it doesn't show. Maybe just back up a little bit and not crowd the bead as much? Any advice you could give?
