Flexifloss Thin Skin Buzzer

Step by Step's

Flexifloss Thin Skin Buzzer Fly Tying Materials

Step 1

Run the thread down the hookshank and around the bend, catching in a piece of flexifloss as you go. Return the thread to just over half way up the hookshank covering the hook as you wind.

Step 2

Cut a piece of 'thin skin' about 3-4mm thick for a size 10 hook and taper off the end into a triangle shape.

Step 3

Catch in the pointed end of the thin skin and the paper backing facing downwards. (When the paper backing is peeled away the shiny side is facing up).

Step 4

Pull the 'thin skin' forwards and secure with thread. Make sure the 'thin skin' lies central and inline with the hookshank.

Wind the flexifloss up the hookshank in wide turns so that a gap is left between each wrap. Then secure the flexifloss with a couple of wraps of thread just in front of the 'thin skin' and wind the thread up to the eye.
