Buck tails of many kinds are good to have on any trip
THe most useful are those with a red and white head they are used all over the world and standard issue in the US Navy's survival kits. The bigger the jig the bigger the fish. large bucktails
are great when fishing the canal they are a sure fire way to bag a striper(lest thou useith plugs like true gentlemen and fishermen
) Now get a variety of sizes and shapes but I generaly use white and redhead some guys like black I dont.
Storm swimers are great Pogy and White colored but tend to be very oily so I dose'em in Bunker oil. Parachutte jigs are another poppular jig in the canal they are basicaly a bucktail head with a fiber tail that is very big and pluffy creating a great swim affect. Crippeld Herrings are probably the most popular and productive in the canal and anywhere for that matter.
