Anyone have any use for the brown back bucktail hair? I've got a couple tails that I've stripped most of the color (White, red etc) off and am left with the natural brown.
Have about 2 or 3 tails now but will have much more this winter
Curious...if it's something someone might use, I'll save them for someone

the brown hair on the "back" side of a natural bucktail makes a killer anchovy fly.......

Streetfight,
I got out of fly tying when I learned that i could not cast :bc: :bc:
Might try it again sometime soon. I've got an LLBean 8 wt. in the garage.

Use it over white belly on deceivers. Try mixing it with a little yellow bucktail (or olive...etc), looks sweet. Also for mummichog imitations.
I use the white bucktail and the natural brown fade for dressing siwash on lures /bunker I cut the hair to include the brown a little ....
otherwise yeah I have brown too 2-3 of em:huh:
