This is most excellant Joe


very nice of you to share your how to. I'll have to add it to the favorites and how to forum part of this plug forum.
Thank you.
I have a suggestion not that you need it, on those fins and tails, the "bone" as you call it, if you leave a tag end on it so you can put the tag end in the vise, then you could tie the bucktail hair on it facing the other way like you normally would do to a hook or jig. I find that more comfortable for me.
Great looking plug, I'm sure they catch fish. I'll have to try this soon.
