HeyMarkell, This post will be moved to the Fly tying thread I would move it but the control button is missing, Move us Jerry, thanks.

The trouble you are having with the buck tail is normal. Not sure exactly where your problem is, so let me do it this way.
When you snip the bunch of hair off the buck tail, hold the good hair by the tip and use your finger or scissors to flip the loose hair out of the butt end of the hair. Then using your finger gently pull the hair out and you will have what you need to tie on.

If you are right handed get the length of the hair you need with your left hand and the jig or hook, and snip the end off straight, dab a drop of lacquer into the hair. Lay it on the hook and take two or three very tight turns around the hook pulling the hair in tight making the end of the hair stick up or out. Use your scissors to snip off the excess hair and continue to wrap it down.
Make sure you have the thread tight from the first wrap to the last wrap.
When it's finished use a good amount of clear lacquer to finish it off. If there is something else you need, please give me a shout. Hope this helps you out some.
