Interesting, I bought 2 Fulling Mill bucktails from a store nearby and thought they were quite nice. Yea a little pricey but, the amount of hair on the tails was amazing. I'll probably get dozens and dozens of clousers and deceivers out of these. I bought a white and a fl.chartreuse. I'll agree that they're definitely not like bucktails were say... 10 15 years ago but, I know things change with supply from time to time.
