Tying Instructions: Tying the bead tail so that it looks right is easy. String the first bead on a 3 inch piece of mono. Once you have the first bead on, fold over the mono so the ends touch and string on the rest of your beads through BOTH pieces of mono. The first bead will prevent all the rest of the beads from falling off. Then just tie it in to the hook.
Presentation Tips: Swing for the fences!
