Tie any type of Bucktail you want. I don’t care if we have 12 variations of the Mickey Finn :!:

Well I have enough swaps on the go but I can’t tie enough with bucktail. I’ll let you know what I’ll tie, It’ll be an original creation. I’ll size this one for trout and panfish.

Kahuna:
I’ll tie a Skip Morris pattern called the “Ant Carol” just to do something a little different (at least for me) Thanks for letting me join in.

Hook: Light wire, standard length to IX long (standard dry-fly hook), sizes 12 and 10
Thread: 8/0 or 6/0 thread-color should echo body-color).

Abdomen: Red-orange synthetic dubbing (or some other ant-color, typically black or brown) poly, Superfine, Antron…

Wings: Brown buck tail.

Thorax: The same as the abdomen.

Hackle: One,(whatever color imitates the natural).

May I get in on this one? I’ll tie a pattern shown to me by a local used for landlocks in the spring. Not sure if it has a name, but its fun to tie and has to work in more water than just here. I’ll just call it “No Name Smelt” for the swap.

9

I have an idea for a pattern I’ll call it the silver shinner bucktail. I’ve had great success fishing yellow perch, rainbow trout, and Brown trout on a few other minnow paterns I have put together like this one.
