I wondering if you guys can help me out. My wife has been tying teasers for the back of my plugs for a couple months now and wants to try tying some bucktail jigs. I'm talking 2 to 4 oz with 7/0 - 8/0 hooks the only problem is finding the hair long enough to tie them. I'm in Monmouth county but I also wouldn't mind ordering them online. So if anyone knows where I can find longer hair I would appreciate it. I'm thinking it doesn't even hve to be dear hair. Just not the nylon stuff. Also is their a different thread you guys use for tying bucktils as opposed to teasers. Thanks in advance Looking for longer bucktail 92223

talk to joefishingproblem. he shoots deer in the summer even Very Happy


on a side note....wouldn't you want natural hair for the level of bouyancy it supplies to the jig? i tied some teasers and the like with synthetic and have never touched the stuff since. just did not react the same way in the water to me.

Yea I should have stated that I defiantly want real hair but I have heard of people using other types of animal hair I just cant remember what or wher they got it.

Easy with the red neck stuff...lol!!!! I shoot for my County here in NY( we call them nusiance permits) all of our kills go to needy families...we butcher and grind about 2500 lbs of healthy venison a year( its distributed in 1 lb packages).....but I digress.......Summer deer tails just don't work as well, as fall/ winter hair is thinner and more brittle... proper processing is also essential to good B/T hair.....split the tail down the bone wash out any blood or fforeign debris.........lay flat...skin side up and LIBERALLY aply BORAX *NOT* salt....leave in a cool dry area for 5-7 days...voila.....a tail that will tie some nice B/T.

if you want long hair get friendly with a deer butcher. That's how I get all mine. For plugs, I have to cut the hair in half, the hair is so long.
