You can use a lot of different materials. Stacked deer belly, bucktail, marabou, rabbit fur.

Thanks buddy 🤟

Thanks buddy

Oh yeah try em out! 🤟

The material list is in the video description. For the suede i buy mine from South Korea. But i think Hareline sells small sheets of it.

Thank you! Which tails? The feather tail or the one you see on the other colors of gamechangers?

Thank you 🤟

No aha no bufords for trout 🤪

You can control it with the thread dam ur building in front of the reverse tied bucktail! Look at my last video of the gamechanger 2.0. The last 2 bucktail steps on the head are reverse ties.

Thank you! And yes on the rainbow color its a mirage chenille. Blends together perfectly. Then some light pink mix with white on bottom and olive up top!

Both! The way you finish it will def change or help the way you want it to swim!

Yeah its crazy! Regular tails are 17€ here. Prenium tails are 20€ and up. When i go to Canada i can get some nice tails for about 12-15$ canadian which is way cheaper!

In Europe USD 25 and up, if and when they become available. Bucktail shortage is a huge problem here sadly

@dirkvannieuwenhove yes very very sad! And so much lower quality tails out there now.

@@odmfliesIndeed, often only 4” length hair at the max … We rarely get access to good tails. I have a friend who imports some US tails through his shop, and luckily I get access to them but the amount of bucktails he can buy is really limited so it is not fair, to be honest. But I buy what I can to create my own flies

Thank you 🤟

Oh yeah its a magic fly for trout and landlocks for me! I mostly use em on bass but tight line nymphing is heavy currents is the way to go for me

Thank you 🤟 quite a lot use them in Europe. Its a great hook. I use everything from 2/0 to 8/0. But also use a lot of Regular Big Mouth in 5/0!

What do pattern do you use for your Muskie flys?

@darrenlord1533 i use a bunch of different ones like my 4D Trout, Flydussa, gamechangers…

Thank you my man 🤟 i use the biggest boxes of the Scientific Anglers. They are quite expensive but you can get the same exact box without the SA logo for half the price on amazon or ali. Check it out!

Aha your welcome my man! Been wanting to do this for a while with all the crazy things ive been seeing lately! Hope it helps 🤟

Thank you? Hell yeah 🤟 tight lines my man

Thank you 🤟

Thank you my man 🤟

Thank you! You can buy them everywhere really. I bought these exact ones at my local fly shop but Hareline makes em, if you want bigger Spawn makes a 6.3mm, 6.4 gets rly tricky because a lot of those beads have small holes. Brands like Traper, Hendz, Hanak will all have 5.5mm. Traper has some crazy 7mm aswell 😬

Hi! thanks. Yeah maybe I can post a short! It's fairly easy. I draw and design any new tail on some millimeter paper, cut it and then stencil that cut on my faux suede.

What do you use to paint the suede?

Awesome, quick ,and realistic ! Great looking fly ! Thanks!

Thank you 🤟

thank you

Thank you 🤟

Thank you! Give em a try you wont be disapointed 🤟

I used to buy spools of magnum tinsel on eBay and make the bundles myself. Very time consuming but worth it if you use a lot of flash for skirts!

Thanks

Hell yeah 🤟 i made this one for a small size spinner for pike! You can make those as big as you want for musky! More bucktail means more weight on your spinner tho if you want to go deeper!

You can use ducktail too. But you would have to cut the bucktail really short so it doesn't impede the tails for freely move. So you would waste a lot. I like dubbing, cheap, fast, easy to tie and makes a clean head with the eyes.Also if you don't use heavy tungsten beads the ducktail will also change the action and the sink rate of the fly with these tails. You can experiment with anything tho. You can use just regular chenille for the body. Have fun with it!

Only 4 damaged fly of them all. 2 crushed hook points due to snags of rocks. That one fly is missing one eye but ive literally landed 40+ fish on it. Hook is fine i will just remake the head 🤪

Thank you my man 🤟

Nightmare musky flies website!!! You can pick between a small or bulk bag.

You said it perfectly! portioning and finger control. Glad you learned something!!!! Yea went been crazy this year that's why I can't do too many videos. Went from Canada to France to Slovakia to Norway and now in Hungary! Here for a couple months so time to tie 🤟

Gday from Australia mate. Rattling jigs is something we both seem to share the ideas with except we do not have the same fish species as you do. I do the same thing with my rattles by cutting off that little T section. Then i position my rattle on the back of the hook shank. Now unlike you I use shrink wrap to hold my rattle into place then thread wrap over the main body but leave the ends exposed. I too also use Zap a Gap waterproof super glue over the thread. Now i can use bucktail like you do which i do sometimes but i really like using rabbit fur zonkers in two tone colours with dyed stripes from hareline. I position the strips either side of the rattle and wrap it in. Then i will dress it off in bucktail and krystal flash. Then i will wrap a U.V. chenille around the neck and make sure all your fibres are brushed backwards over the whole body. I also do the same thing with rattle and hook but then i do a 3 feather marabou rap using my hackle pliers. I wind the feathers over the rattle body towards the jighead. Then i tie it off. Now i make my heads and for these jigs i designed my own underspin jig head which i powdercoat. Now unlike everyone else I do not have my blade swivel protuding from the head. Instead i use a do-it figure 8 insert then attach my split ring to that. So with that in mind i make my neck finish in a bare wrap normally in red then use Loon hard head in clear. This gives the blade room to move unimpeded . I am not on instagram or Facebook any longer. I however have a email address and love watching U-tube and other jig tyers at work. Best Regards B.J.

Thank you! Been travelling a ton a super busy. More to come 🤟

Thank you! It's Faux suede from South Korea. You can find it on eBay. 0.5mm

Hey! Thank you. I tie them on jig hook to fish a long the bottom and reduce snags and also because I fish them euro nymph style on heavy current rivers for bass and walleye. Spawn fly fish makes a 6.3mm slotted bead. I tie them in a 5.5, 6.4 or 7mm bead. It hard to find decent beads with big enough holes for bigger hooks. ''Trapper'' makes the best beads up to 7mm which is crazy big! Its a Polish brand

Hey! Thank you. I cut my own tails... but the wiggle tail you can get from Pacchiarini in small. Get the ''skin'' versions if you want the tails to last longer. For the paddle tail CGH custom tackle makes them. Not sure if he makes them that small tho.

Thanks so much 🎉 Can’t wait to fish Your pattern !!!!

@@brianfeeney9493 send me some pics on my instagram! 🤟

Thank you! Hopefully it catches you a big boy!

Yeah aha some spools are great and some are garbage!!!!!

Thank you! Swims like a charm and catches fish :P try it out!

Oh yea!! I tie a smaller version especially for bass and walleye. It's called the wiggle jig it's a couple videos back. I go from 4/0 all the way down to size 8

Yes it's a good technique so when u tie the tubing down it has something to rest on and not spin on the shank! I tie tubing up to 20mm with that technique. Way bigger then the chockletts that only goes up to 12mm

thank you!
