Materials:

Thread: Traun River Allround thread 6/0 (100 Denier)

Instructions:

1.

Hollow out a 10 cm old fly line with a hot needle.

2.

Apply glue ti the two feathers.

3.

Glue the feathers together and then cut of most of the fibers and glue the fly line onto the bare part. Then cut the wedge into the "caudal fin".

4.

Fray the tubing material with a dubbing needle at the end and push it over the fly line. Then leave the fly line longer than the tube and tie it in the required third of the hook, form the body and cut off the remaining materials.

5.

Make sure that you apply super glue so the tubing stays where it should, and cut of the excess fly line.

6.

Tie in the pearl tinsel and form a body.
