Step #1: Place any #12 to #14 down eye dry fly hook on your vise. Attach 6/0 black thread to the hook and wind to the rear of the hook, and create a small ball with your tying thread.( The down eye hook improves the motion of the tail.)
Step #2: Attach a black goose biot on each side of the thread ball and secure. Tail length should be roughly a 1/4 inch.
Step 3#: Tie in a 3 inch long piece of 5X mono and allow to hang off the back of the tail. Dub a small even or slightly tapered body with black rabbit fur.
Step #4: Take the mono and rib the body with even wraps toward the hook eye, and then secure with thread. To finish the Tail create a small thread head, whip finish, and cut the tying thread.

Step #5: Cut the rear of the hook off as close to the tail as possible.
Step #6: Place a Diiachi X120 #10 or #12 hook in your vise and attach 6/0 black thread to the hook as you see above. Tie in a 3 inch piece of 8 pound mono or fire line (tyers choice) and allow to hang to the rear.
Step #7: Thread the mono through the bottom of the tail hooks eye, and create a horizontal loop on top of the hook. Secure the tag end of the mono with several wraps of thread and add a dab of super glue.
Note* Loop should be as small as possible without interfering with the tail freely moving up and down or side to side.
Step #8: Tie in a 1 inch piece of flashy pearl tinsel, flashback material, or scud back. Next dub on a ball of Hare Line's Peacock Ice Dub as seen above.
