Yes ... Eben, good stuff ... thanks for writing. Bucktailing is used much more in LI than NE, but it's one of those things we should be doing ... and I see the nice new rubber at the top of the photo ...nice!

Nice article, mate.

Looks like we may have to start referring to you as a Renaissance man - writer, father, fisherman, artist & glassblower (with a terminal fear of hiccups, I hear). Pretty good going!

Up until this year I was just as you wrote - I had the bucktails in the bag, since you're supposed to, but never really had the confidence/succcess with them. This spring, though, a combination of a bucktail with cocohoe tail and a teaser fly worked great guns on the south coast (with the nice, tackle-forgiving sandy beaches......)

Hi Zeno, PM me your email adress and i will send you the final draft, but yes it is the same piece- bucktailing with soft plastics with an emphasis on lead to plastic ratio to control fall rates.

your in the picture i submitted for the piece... you'd need a magnifying glass to even realize there is a human there, but your in there. pencils is in there too..

Nice premise.I am a Reel advocate of the jig an different trailors..
If its rubber or pork it has been on the end of one of my jigheads..
The key is to get it to the bass.

Nice job Eben. Zeno spoke at our club back in May and solidified the using of bucktails. Your concept of controlling sink rate with different rubber sized trailers will be a positive piece of info to add to everyone's variety of techniques. Can't wait to try this concept.
