Hi I'm Ed Story on behalf of expertvillage.com. My website is www.feather-craft.com fly fishing. Here I'm going to tie a marabou streamer from a marabou streamer kit on our website and I'm preparing the thread now from pulling it away from its little notch on its thread spool. We cut that loose end off there which has a curl to it and then we are going to mount it in to a bobbin. While you could use a bobbin loader many ... just prepare the thread by pushing in the bobbin tube simply sucking it through the top of the tube and the bobbin is now ready to loaded and ready to use. I'm going to take a hook furnace with the kit and we are going to tie our little white marabou streamer on. We are going to mount in the vise again and lock it in tight with the knot in the bottom of the jaw. We are going to make this hook a ... hook by using a pliers made to suppress the bar down so now we have a barbless hook.
