Measure your hooks eye
Begin your first wrap make sure that your wraps go away from you. Always wrap AWAY from you. You’ll want to wrap an area the size of the inner diameter of the hook. If you look at the eye of the hook, begin your first wrap approx. the distance from the eye, the same distance as the hooks width itself. This gives your bucktail something to sit on if you will. (if you’ve got hard as nails I like to hit this first wrap with a drop, stuffs relatively inexpensive) Your call do or dont. The measurement is the pic on the right.
