Boskabouter Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 One word: Awesome! They look very realistic. It's just like they're cut up to be eaten What is the fin material? Feather? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snax Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 John was kind enough to tell me that the tail material is a product from the fly tying world called microfibetts. Thin durable tapered synthetic fibers. I'm going to be using them on my own swimbaits and yes, they do look amazing. Johns baits are phenomenal aren't they? I always enjoy every new batch he comes up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike-A-Pike Posted December 19, 2007 Report Share Posted December 19, 2007 I agree with Boskabouter, let's get a skillet heated up on the river bank and eat those... Those really look great. Post 'em in the gallery if you haven't already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
