This episode is the second in a two-part series on tying in a "palmered" hackle. A Palmered hackle is a hackle that runs the full length of the hook, rather than tied in at the head and, as a result, has a different set of skill requirements to tie correctly. This episode discusses counter-ribbing to protect the hackle.
