Extra Large Bucktails?

Does anyone out there have a good source for extra large, jumbo, saltwater, etc. bucktails?

I've been using all of my normal suppliers but non really have the extra large ones.

Any suggestions?,

Hi Tony,.... I've been using yours and Bill's shops as my suppliers for large, white Bucktails. Almost every shop I've visited has some large, dyed Bucktails but white is scarce. I've seen some posts on Blanton's BB about Salt Water Flies ( www.saltwaterflies.com ) but have never used them for Bucktails myself. Jay Murakoshi may have some he'd be willing to part with or know a source.

Generally, I just don't buy unless I find exactly what I'm after. big grin

I just sold my batch of washed long bucktails. I still have orders for at least 300 more but too dang lazy to wash them. Some of the buck tails I have/had has hair around 4 1/2" to 5" but the standard is around 4". You can't really tell the length until they're washed.

I think it's time for a price increase Mad

. I've been selling them for $3.50 to $4.50 which is almost wholesale for LONG buck tails. I will be posting a photo and info on my web site - hopefully in the coming week
