Fish-Skull Faux Bucktail from Fly-Men is a tapered synthetic multi-use fly tying fiber designed to imitate typical premium-length natural bucktail. Fish-Skull Faux Bucktail fibers have the same basic diameter, gentle crinkle, and taper as natural bucktail. In appearance, it looks almost identical and has the same distinctive bucktail fly or lure action in the water. However, the fibers are not hollow (which helps your fly sink faster) and will not “flare” in the same way as regular bucktail while tying. This means you will need to tie with slightly different techniques to achieve the same effect.
- Every Faux Bucktail fiber is premium 6” (152 mm) length
- More than twice the amount of usable fibers per tail and eliminating the headache of sorting and searching for ideal strands
- Can be used in a wide range of fly or lure types
- Makes beautiful tapered wrapped “quill” bodies, nymph wing cases, mayfly tails, and legs
- Tie streamers from Clouser minnows and Lefty's deceivers right up to large, “bite-proof” pike, musky or golden dorado flies
- Tie simple and durable tails on foam poppers
- Makes tougher, longer-lasting fresh and saltwater bucktail jigs
Note: This Faux Bucktail cuts easily, but like most other synthetic materials can be hard on your nice scissors. Use serrated heavy duty scissors designed for synthetics (or an old pair you don’t mind abusing).
