tommegna Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 Hello, Has anyone made any Flashabou Bucktails with the NEW Magnum Flashabou from Hedron. There is only 10 colors out. I am sure the will have more. These Hanks are Humongus. (spelling?). I am going to order some in th next couple of days. Any comments would be deeply appreciated.

Nathan Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 I have used a lot of these products to add a flashy center line down the sides of my hard baits.With a small brush lay a stripe of minwax polyacrylic down,then lay the flashabou, or similar product down.Allow to dry then top coat as usual.It gives you a great flashy effect...Nathan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark poulson Posted June 20, 2014 Report Share Posted June 20, 2014 That's a good site. Thanks. Has anyone found some silver flashabou that is1/8"+ wide? I found a piece in the lake parking lot, and tied it into a chatterbait. It really works! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryF2858 Posted June 21, 2014 Report Share Posted June 21, 2014 i bought some at xmas it was supposed to be tinsel but it comes 18" long x 1/8 wide strips so i can get lots of strips from one package, comes in red, blue, silver, gold and pearl.

Griffond Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 if you find some at the dollar store let me know which one I have kept my eye on the local ones here in MN and nothing of the sort they did have some nice reflective tape thou for making eyes with.

TerryF2858 Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 i tried to google the manufacturer, seems they have gone out of business, or been bought up, but if you google "hair tinsel" you will find some on ebay that they use to put in girls hair for flash, maybe that will work for you.

mark poulson Posted June 22, 2014 Report Share Posted June 22, 2014 I measured the strip I found, and it is actually 3/16"+ wide! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommegna Posted June 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 Strip is 1/32" wide, 32" long and Hedron, Inc. is not out of business. There are only 10 colors now. They will add more later. Thanks for all the help. This is the same product as Magnum Holographic Flashabou, but a much longer hank. 20" he's 32" (81cm).
