hook size - 8 3x long shank
Tail - Sili Legs tied in a knot near end
body - brown Bucktail
head - brown foam
thread black

take two pieces of sili legs and tie an overhand knot near the end...tie on to hook shank...now you want to take bunches of bucktail(or deer or elk hair) and tie near the tips and flair but dont spin...trim the top of the excess and leave the bottom excess...continue tying the bunches of hair all the way to the eye...trim the body under the shank of the hook...exposing the point...tie on your foam head and whip finish

no not the horse. But I met a guide in Kentucky that guides at night for 450/two people. 100% Garaunteed a big brown on top water. He uses monster mouses.
Hitting it this summer and can't wait to post the pics! If we get a skunk...it's FREE!
