Coller on heads?

[Shoemoo]

I wrote a tutorial on how to tie on collared jigs here:

The idea is to build up the area around the hook shank until it is approximately the same level as the collar. If the difference is too great even after you tie in the tail, you can tie in the central threads on the chenille on the collar, then start wrapping the fuzzy part behind the collar going toward the point. Wrap your thread back to the end of the body, then forward to the head. Then wrap the chenille back to the had and tie off.

Then you won't have a problem with lumpy bodies.
