Real and Faux Bucktail Comparison.

This video is a bit different, its more of a comparison between two materials. The synthetic bucktail, and real bucktail. From my opinion, I think they both have unique properties and differences, so much so that I really think the should be different named materials all together. Faux bucktail is somewhat misleading as its not exactly the same as the real stuff. In some ways its better, and in some ways its worse. For certain applications it could be better, and for certain applications it could be worse. So thats my conclusion.

Hook: Gamakatsu SS15 in size 2
Eyes: Lead Painted Dumbell Eyes in large and red
Thread: Danville 210 Flat Waxed in White
Material: Real and Faux Bucktail in white/olive
Head Cement: Solarez "Bone Dry"

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
