Well, sounds like you want to use eggs, but have yarn already on, correct? So you can put eggs on and yarn won't come out (say as if being held by the egg loop). Easy way to do this is to simply lay the yarn to be used on the hook, and tie up your egg knot over the yarn. Basically tying the mono over the yarn. Hope that's what you meant.

O.K. I slipped to the bottom and I'd really like to know the answer to this question. I just went out and bought about $20.00 worth of yarn and I'd like to start tying some up. Grant I know you know I really liked your yarn flies. Nice and round and able to add eggs.
