To Thorax or Not To Thorax

That is the question.

Whether it mak?s it sit mair  nobly oan the waater???.

Seriously, I  am siting  here tying up some of Bob Wyatt?s ?Dirty Dusters? Bob told me this is far easier to tie than his deer hair emerger, far tougher and catches just as many fish.  Question is, does the thorax matter?

Watcha think?
