We use the big drinking straws also for deer hair bass bugs.  You can spin
the hair on up to the collar and slide the straw over it to hold it back out
of the way while you spin the head of the bug.  Once the head is trimmed and
shaped carefully cut off the straw and shape the collar of the bug.  Very
useful things those straws!!!  Wendy's here has the big fat straws and those
work best on deerhair.

I see no one had replied. Here goes.
The straw is filled with Glo Bug Yarn using a long wire hook. The yarn 
is brought out of the end of the straw enough to make  an egg . The 
exposed yarn is tied to the hook shank. A bit more yarn is pulled from 
the straw after it is tied on the hook shank and cut off just above the 
straw end leaving enough yarn exposed for the next Glo Bug. The yarn 
will flare out into a Glow Bug Egg.
That is a quick and dirty way to make Glow Bug Eggs. You can buy a tool 
like this for making the Glow bugs, it is a wire hook and three 
different size plastic tubes.
