Instructions:
Notes:  Yarn over lead wire provides smooth cigar shape for wrapping tinsel and helps provide thicker body.  Marabou underwing is tied on top of hook to extend just beyond
hook bend.  Each Mallard feather is rolled slightly over top of hook shank resulting in tent covering top of hook.  Flank feather should extend 1/2 to 2/3 of shank length beyond bend.  A generous daub of head cement is brushed on flank feathers; then use thumb and first finger to stroke feathers back into a point.  This glues the ends of the
feathers together and makes the fly much more durable.
