Pulling Back Tension

How do you guys pull back tension?  I use my thumb and index finger.  I see guys using tweezers but don't see how.  I've tried tweezers and it doesn't grip enough material.

Also, have you ever noticed the top reed doesn't pull along with the bottom two reeds?  A couple years ago I started pulling the top reed a little first, then grabbing the two bottom reeds and pulling them all together with the top reed.  It's tricky and takes a little practice.
