Re: Bucktails and trailer hooks.
Mako, beautiful work!! Do you put a light coat of nail polish on the shank of the hook just before tying? It helps to secure the thread if you add polish as you go. For epoxy, use 5 minute, any brand. You want to use a fast cure so that it doesnt "crawl" up the hair. I agree with tropics, you dont realy need he epoxy, but it does allow you to "Bulk up" the body and add a little sparkle, and you could add small eyes on the teasers.
