Wrap thread on body to form tail. When you remove tail from needle take the thread that was in the material holder and pull to remove the slack and cut off excess.

Bring foam through hair and tie down. Lift foam and wrap thread on hook and bring foam back down and form head and whip finish. To put on the front fly just repeat the instruction.
