Finish Semperfli no-tack UV resin, then Sally Hansen's coat
How to tie it
Wax the red thread lightly and start it at the head, laying a base layer to the rear and back to the head so the red shows through.
Trim the end of the Body Glass to a thin tie-in point, tie it in and pull it tight so it adds little bulk.
Wrap the thread down over the tie-in and back, keeping the body thin.
Take one wrap of Body Glass at the butt, then open wraps forward as a rib, letting go of tension as you go so the segments get thicker toward the front.
Pull the Body Glass tight, trim it, and build a small football-shaped head section with thread.
Lay a small amount of white gill material on top of the shank, one or two wraps, then cut it to length so only a hint shows.
Stroke the gill material back, bring it forward over the head, and secure it with a few figure-eight wraps.
Hold the gills forward and whip finish behind them.
Coat the body up to the whip finish with a thin layer of no-tack UV resin and cure it, then add a coat of Sally Hansen's and cure again.
