    Question Anyone tie bucktail Treble hooks????

    I need a dozen or so #6 treble hooks ties with YELLOW buck tail. I want REAL bucktail. I had a guy make some for me and he used some kind of synthetic stuff....NOT what i wanted. A RED feather in the middle is GREAT too.
    I like mustad or owner #6 trebles OR VMC or Grammy will do too.
    I can either pay or trade for some plastics I make for myself.
    You can text me at. FIVE SEVEN ZERO ... SIX FOUR SEVEN-NINE ZERO ZERO SEVEN.
    HERE is what I am looking for and tied with RED if available but not really needed.
    Thanks for any help...

    Since you're being pretty specific to your needs I suggest doing them yourself thus insuring you get exactly what you want. Everything you want is readily available to you in amounts that fit your needs. The reason I have built my own rods and tackle for 40 years.

    Spoon plugger has a good thought, it’s pretty straightforward, with minimal supplies needed. Then you have what you need for the next time also. I tie my own, it doesn’t take too long at all. I just don’t have the color you need.

    Thanks guys.... I have looked into building my own. I have made my own plastics and jigs for the past 20 years. I tHought maybe someone in here could make me a dozen or so without me buying all the supplies. I have a jig vise to do it, too.
    I am not that picky to be honest, but I need size 6 and yellow bucktail for making my inline spinners. Brand of hook, well, most would do for these.
    I appreciate your responses and if I can not find anyone to make them, I’ll buy the supplies and try it myself.

    After reading this I checked. I have a yellow buck tail. I do not have treble hooks. If you want to get the hooks and send them to me, I will tie them for you.

    Just wanted to let anyone know who reads this. He did not want any money to do this for me. He volunteered to do it
    free. WELL, I received the finished products today and they are better than PERECT. The bucktail fan just right with plenty of hairs.
    the red feather in the center is the right length and compliments the bucktail. The wrapping is perfect and strong and does not
    detracts from the rest.
    This is what BBC is about when we all others when we can. Thank You Jig Man
