[Life's A Beach]

10-15# braid tied directly to a small swivel; tie a 3' leader to the white or glow bucktail (size already mentioned) and tie a 1' leader from the swivel to the teaser.

Some peepz tie the braid to mono/flouro top shot and tie a dropper loop or figure 8 for the teaser above it (1-2').

The color of the bucktail doesn't matter AT ALL; as long as it's white! I mentioned the brand I use. The paint holds up long, the bucktail doesn't pull out and the hooks stay sharp long. That plus Joe does make some of his jigs with the aforementioned swivel already on the hook; convenient! His products are for sale in tackle shops in Brielle and Point Pleasant; PM for exact names.


OPPS.........first two pics are a recent dinner; broccoli/cheese pasta, yellow corn (yes left over from flounder season), broiled scallops and monkfish with a couple slices of rare fillet mignon roasted and sliced.

next two are some Mai Tai Bucktail Jigs. Notice that most are white or glow. the second is a Black Bart carry case which keeps the sizes seperated (thanks for sharing the info Backdoor). it rolls up small for easy handling then rolls out to pick your next donation.
