I knew racoons were good for something

[Joey]

Found some coon tail at a specialty fishing store awhile ago, so decided to make good use of those pesky varmints and make a spinnerbait out of it.

That looks great Joey.

 

You could even add a plastic tail or 1/8" rabbit strip if you wanted it to have more tail action: http://www.youtube.c...player_embedded

 

I will have to remember to pull over when I see some road kill. Free coon tail.

 

 

edit2 : johnnyb maggots = perch bait.

Did you want to try making some from Porqupines tails ??? I seem to have a never ending supply with lead poisoning around here....

drop by the salvation army stores once in a while Joey. Back when I was tying I picked up some amazing fur collars, hats and feathers for just pennies.

Could it really be.Before you bought your house I think you had problems with racoons in the previous house.

 

Did you do what I think you did Joey? Did that hair come from ..............
