Answer: Take three strands of Krystal flash and fold it in half. Now lay that on your hook just so the tail end meets the tail end of the marabou you have already on the hook. Use your tying thread and wrap three or four turns in the center of your Krystal flash. Be sure you end up at the same starting poing. Now fold the Krystal flash over. You should now have six strands sticking out the end instead of three. Tie this down with your tying thread.
Move your tying thread to the point where you want ti tie in your chenille.
Also as I understand and as I saw in the slide show video, you lay the chenille on the hook with one end at the head, tie this in going back to the length you want the body to be, then tie back to the head. Then wrap toward the head and finish. As I see this you end up with the chenille being tied to the hook starting at the head tying back to the length of the body returning the thread to the head before wrapping. You will be wrapping over a full body length of chennile tied under to the hook. Or do you just barely tie in the end of the chenille back away from the head, tie thread up to jig head, then wrap. With this method you would only be wrapping the chenille over a small part of the chenille that you tied in and not a full body length of chenille. Thanks
