Adding The
Second Collar of Bucktail! |
|
Step 1:
You will tie three small bunches of hair in front of
the first collar you just tied onto the hook. Again, one
bunch
will be tied between each of the shanks.
Make two or three
new wraps, moving the thread forward toward the eye before
you begin tying the second collar.. |
|
Step 2::Cut
a small bunch of hair and place it between the
first two shanks and slowly wrap two or
three loose wraps of
thread around the hook and hair. Using your
fingers distribute the
hair evenly and wrap six to seven more wraps
but apply more
pressure this time so the is now held
snuggly by the thread. Trim
excess hair in front of thread wraps. |

Step 3:
Repeat step 2 between second and third shank. |
|
Step 4:
Remember to trim excess hair in front of thread wraps. |

Step 5::
You may have to lift the hair to get your scissors really
close to the thread. Be careful not to cut your thread. |
|
Step 6::
Add the last bunch of hair to your treble with two or
three loose wraps of thread. |
|
Step 7::Use
your fingers to evenly distribute the hair and wrap
six to seven more wraps while applying more pressure. Trim
excess hair. |
|
Step
8::While
trimming excess hair, try to taper the cuts towards the
hook eye. Work plenty of head cement around the collar
of hair after
it has been trimmed. |
|
Step
9::
After you have trimmed the hair in front of your wraps
