Step 7
Add some olive dubbing to ur thread and wrap it forward over the black dubbing till u reach the beginning of the lead wire u tied in earlier.
Step 8
Using ur Hackle pliers wrap the feather(dull side of the feather should face to the left) forward over the olive dubbing till u reach the black dubbing.Secure with thread and clip the excess off.Remember to release some of the feathers that could've been trapped before moving to the next step.
Step 9
Tie in a slightly longer dark brown hackle by it's tips.Again dull side facing to ur left and wrap it forward to the hook eye.Hold it in place and move the thread forward through the feather.Ur thread will act as the ribbing to secure the feather nicely.Whip finish and tie off.Remove any feathers that could've been trapped.Add some glue to the head.The fly is now finished.Remember to debarb the hook as well.
