The Classic Bucktail jig - hair jig tying tutorial

With underwater swimming action! Nothing really beats the Bucktail Jig for classic vibe and pure fish catching effectiveness. The flow of natural bucktail will lure fish year round. If I had to restrict myself to one lure for a whole season... fishing for a variety of species - I would choose the Bucktail Jig. Check out the underwater footage in the end of the video to see just how lifelike the hair moves during retrieve as well as pauses. This version is spiced up with a touch of pearl crystal flash and small 3D eyes - but these add-ons are optional. To speed the process I also use UV-resin, but again... ordinary varnish will also do just fine.
You are gonna need some of these this season - I'm just saying ;0)
