"Hi I'm Ed Story on behalf of expertvillage.com. My website is www.feather-craft.com fly fishing. The crackle back is two strings of peacock tied in on top of the hook shank at the end of the hook shank with thread wrap just as we did the saddle hack. Now I'm going to cut out the waste and the crackle back is tied in. Next I'm going to select a turkey ground and use the feather fibers for a total about five as the fly body. I'm going to clip them off at the base of the round. This is a steam. I'm going to turn the married feather fibers together upside down. Hold them in a magic pinch, tight them also in the end of the hook shank just as we did the hackle and the crackle back using peacock curl. We are going to clip away the waste and that is a step."
