so i tied some bucktails a few weeks back and have just been swamped with work and life and fishing to post any pics, but finally got a little video shot of the results.
I tied most of my bucktails with long hackles and some red maribou, instead of having to use pork strips. One reason is I really dont like carrying around rinds for bucktails and the others were reduced casting distance, and the fact that mine always seem to get fouled on the hook. I use the strips not the split tails.
The action is pretty sweet and the fish seem to agree.
I tied all the basic colors and some crazy ones for stained/dirty water.
