dave lindsay said...: hi rob i like to tie them quite thick to get a better baitfish shape in the the water so the pike think there getting a good meal also with more bucktail it will put out more vibration in the water which sometimes can give you that edge if the pike is only thinking about knobbling it, the extra bit of sonic signal can and often does get the fish to attack , if i was fishing saltwater id probably tie a bit more sparse to get that sandeel shape ...tight lines mate; 23 June 2009 at 14:23
