On the bucktail jigs that I tie I use "hard as nails" nail cement to strengthen the nylon thread around the neck. The glossy finish looks great and stands up well over time. I have heard of some people using epoxy. Any recommendations on things that you guys like to use? Those using epoxy can you tell me what type you use and the best way to cure it. Any suggestions or helpful tips would be appreciated. I've tied around 5,000 of these jigs but could always a new idea or two. Thanks.
