cabelas has them but i’d rather give the business to the little guy

i have some clear plastic/rubber material for a boat patch that i could cut to shape. that should suffice for now.

thanks

I saw some in a local shop the other day.

Richie @ urban angler can order some for me

feel free to hijack this thread with any items you are having trouble finding.

like bulk extaz (why don’t they sell it at the craft store in bulk like yarn?)

I agree about the bulk estaz, having just spent $2.99 a yard for some at a fly shop (Feather-Craft).

If you guys can’t find something locally send me a PM or email and I will get it for you. I give all IA guys special prices and most items are available in bulk if you want to stock up.

picked up my tails at urban angler on friday after work.
many thanks to urban angler for going out of their way for not only ordering them for me, but holding on to them till i got a chance to swing on by and pick them up.

Is it just me or do these push flies into the soft plastic territory????

You can judge a man by the size of things which annoy him.

it definately is a cross over toward a jig/soft plastic

i’ll usually ask my client who i’m tying for how traditional they are in what they want to fish. if a rubber tail crosses the line, i’ll tie something else.

same with my shad flies. some can be tied on a lead jig head which is basically a crappy jig.

personally, i have no issue fishing either but if you put one of those buzz spinners on a fly, forget it. thats where i draw the line
