Does anyone tie long streamers or jigs with skunk tail? If so,where is a good source to purchase this material? How have your fishing results been on various species?
I have made some musky baits out of skunk tail and i actually really like the stuff. It has pretty nice action in the water. I get mine from moores lures (mooreslures.com), will cost you about $3.50 a tail. Hope this helps!
how long are the hairs on the skunk tails... i got my moores catalog.. i was thinking about buying a skunk tail.... i only tie marabou right now.... i can't stand deer hair... messy, and it doesn't look as good as the bou...
The hairs are LONG!!....lol. The hair around the base of the tails are a little 'fuzzier', and are around two inches, and the longer hairs on the end are around 6 1/2 inches long. here's a pic...
BTW, I really like moores lures... never had a problem with 'em. My orders usually arrive in two-three days!! I would reccomend them for anybody who makes musky lures!!
