Winter Bucktail Tying

Wonderbread Bucktails

I tied some of these a few years ago and gave most of them away but caught a bunch of fish on the few I saved, I lost my last one early last season to the rocky bottom.

So decided to tie some more on 1oz jig heads.

The shank is tied with 8 yellow hackles, white, blue and bright pink hair, then allowed to dry.



Once the shank was fully dried I tied the collar with yellow, light pink, bright pink, blue and white hair, its time consuming blending all the different colors together and only using small amounts of each one at a time, but the results are pretty cool.



Even though they may not catch better than all white or another solid color I’m a big fan of my plugs, lures and my gear being visually appealing, it’s a personal preference thing but I’ll be fishing this hard come spring.




Tying helps me pass the time in the winter months, helps keep away the non fishing madness.
