About this fly

James Wood Bucktail My variation of the James Wood Bucktail is an imitation of a small sunfish. It is impressionistic pattern at best, but I’m hoping that the redfin pickerel will think that it is a tempting morsel. Experiment with different colored chenille and bucktail to imitate other baitfish.
