Big Will 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2007 I just took a small order from a tackle shop for 1000 bucktail teasers for flounder rigs but I am having trouble finding bucktails that are big enough for what I need in the colers that I need them in.

JSzymczyk 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2007 it's always hit-or-miss when getting materials online or mailorder. I've bought "Extra-Large Prime Northern Whitetail Bucktails" from several places, and the size and quality always varies, even from the same supplier in the same order. Sometimes a lot of the hair is 4, 4-1/2 inches and straight, sometimes it's 3 inches max and kinky. If you can find someone at the company to actually talk to about what you need, that might help. Possibly JStockard, Feathercraft in St. Louis or Whitetail Fly Tieing (Chris Helm) in Ohio. all are on the internet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
longears 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2007 What does a "bucktail Teaser" look like ? If you're using them for Flounders , what size ,model hook are you using? we have alot of flounder fishing around here and you might have something that would be fun for kids to try.

Faster Fish 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2007 I would sugest using Chris Helm at www.whitetailflytieing.com. His number is (800) 579-5549. Great guy to work with. A budy of mine at work is in a fishing club with him. I am sure that he can help you with what you need. Randy Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackfin 0 Report post Posted April 22, 2007 You're right, - if you're looking for bucktails exclusively its hit or miss. I've done some orders for larger bucktail flies in Prince Rupert, BC and Alaska that wanted them minimum 6"-7" long. For those flies I substituted yak hair for the bucktail and then rubbed it with a little Brylcreem to give it some shine and durability. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
