Start thread behind the eye and lay a base to the bend; a few flattened turns of lead can be added top and bottom, since clingers are broad and flat.
Tie in three pheasant tail fibers by the tips as a short, widely splayed tail, half a shank long, and catch in a strand of copper wire at the same point.
Wrap the pheasant fibers forward to the 60% mark for a slim abdomen and tie off, then counter-rib with 4-5 turns of copper wire and break off.
Dub a robust, buggy thorax of amber-brown hare's ear from 60% to just behind the eye, picking it out fat and flat.
Tie a slip of mottled turkey over the thorax as a wingcase and lock it behind the eye; sweep a few partridge fibers along each side for legs.
