Al Beatty uses a small piece of tying thread to split the tails and then
wrap back over the body before final dubbing. Double the thread, hook it
around the gape, and pull over body, splitting the tail evenly. Tighten the
thread loop to spread and/or raise tail before wrapping.

I want to widely split the tails on small sized spinner patterns WITHOUT
using a "small ball of dubbing"

OR, going nuts from frustrationg,

I bet one or more of you guys has a great method to share?

PS I can use either hackle barbs or microfibit tails
