Has anyone tried these ?

I was going to get some as stocking stuffers for my brother in law and dad but I was just wondering how the material is

Or if I should just buy material and hooks as is

Premium bucktail

• Upvotes

I'm tying a fly order that is mostly big stuff for Canadian Pike and Musky, including some 10" long flies like Popovic's Beast and Double Bufords. I'm thinking I'm going to want the high-end bucktail for this. Since Primo Tail is no longer available, my next choice is Musky Fool's MF-A grade hair, but it's out of stock at present. I've been looking at Marabou Bros. "El Presidente" grade. Does anyone know if one of these is superior to the other, or if there's another brand I should be considering that I don't know about?

I don't live anywhere near a fly shop that would carry stuff like this, so it's going to have to be ordered online.

Thanks to this sub for suggesting Charlie’s fly box for how-to vids. The Venture Fly Co videos have also been a great resource for a beginner such as myself and would highly recommend!

How to tie?

The nymph changer has a really buggy body, how would you tie that? I can’t seem to get it right with squirrel or hare in a dubbing loop. It just gets brushed out into long strands and falls out.

The two tone changer: is this tied like an EP baitfish; clumps tied on top and bottom, or is there some technique to get top/bottom contrast with the chenille wraps?

Any good videos of making these resin tails like on the gamechanger?

Love the look of this dumbbell eye. I didn’t used to care if they had pupils or not but I think it looks much better with one. Fish probably don’t care one way or another
