Catch black thread in anywhere in the middle of the streamer hook and take it back to the start of the bend; sizes run 4 to 12.
Tie in a small slip of mottled turkey for the tail, not long but not insignificant, with a loose wrap over the top first; it will bunch a little and that is fine. Leave the front butt in place to help thicken the body.
Bind medium gold tinsel in at the tail with the gold side toward the hook so it faces out when you flip it, then bring the thread up to about the middle of the shank.
Catch the yellow floss in at the middle, wrap it forward to just behind the eye, back to the middle, all the way to the tail and forward again, so you get four layers up front and two at the rear for a taper. Tie it off at the front.
Spiral the gold tinsel forward gold side up in evenly spaced turns, catch it off with a couple of wraps, then fold the tag back and lay a couple more wraps over the fold to really bind it before trimming.
Turn to the underside and tie a small slip of red duck or goose in as a throat, unmarrying the barbs with your fingers or a bodkin, then snip the excess up front.
Stack a small tuft of fox squirrel tail, measure it to the back of the tail, cord the thread up and lock it on top with a couple of tight wraps and several more going forward.
Lift the butts and cut them at an angle for a tapered head, push any high stray fibres up with a thumbnail and bury them under thread.
Tie a jungle cock nail on each side as a cheek with a couple of wraps, check the position before committing, then snip the stems.
Take several wraps to build a big streamer head, whip finish, thin the throat with a bodkin or scissors if it looks heavy, and drop head cement on it.
