Comments from Ben & his proud dad


The Royal Coachman Bucktail is a popular adaptation of the traditional wet fly. The substitution of white goat hair for the wing adds translucency & action to the pattern when tied in smaller sizes.

Twist the peacock herl with the tying thread before wrapping it on so it won't unravel if the fish bite it.

Ben is the 12 year-old son of the swapmeister, and clearly the prize of his dad's eye with this offering.
