Note: Two strips of floss is bound down underneath the abdomen using the ribbing. The strips are then cut between the ribbing turns to form the hairy look of the underside of the abdomen. The body is made a little broader by tying in a piece of nylon (0.60 mm) on each side of the hook and then I weighted the hook using lead near the hook eye.
