Used this tail in several steelhead patterns and noticed a significant improvement in the natural movement. The taper and barring look authentic and the tail holds up well in both still and moving water.

Great for articulated streamers. The balance between body and flexibility makes it stand out from other materials. Works well in both dry and wet conditions.
Ryan Glover –
The tail has a nice natural look and performs well in predator patterns. A bit stiffer than expected, but still very mobile. Slightly longer than advertised, which is a plus.
