A few of my bucktails are getting a bit, well, skanky. No, don't ask me how they got that way, just tell me how to clean'em up.[;)]

thanks

Dude, do what the women do when they start looking nappy...head to a reputable hair salon! These modernized wonders of the beauty world should be able to wash, dry + shape those tails to their former dynamic selves...products such as Paul Mitchell have taken the fashion world by storm, + I'll soon be releasing one specifically for the fishing peeps, "Hair and Feathers", designed w/ the bucktail user in mind....

Who knew? Dude, I was just in the process of developing THE BUCKTAIL CAGE. This is a small plastic coated wire cage in which you can hang up to a dozen tails of choice.Throw that baby in the washing machine,along with Sponges special bucktail cleaning formula(tide),and B I N G O.............................If muskies had legs we could walk them on a leash.

Oh great. Now my idea of openning up a Bucktail Salon is out of the bag. Curses Sponge Bob!!! :D

For a real answer, just fill a 5 gallon bucket up about 1/3 of the way with water and clean them out by rubbing them between your thumb and fore finger.

Todd, why just clean 1 bucktail at a time?[;)]
**Don't worry boys, we can combine our skills/ideas + develope a musky "Think Tank"; not a research conglomerate such as JLongs, but a more relaxed atmosphere where we can gather w/ sacks full of snacks + ponder new gimmicks + ideas...gaze out into space + realize that which we gaze at is the limit...share thoughts, ideas, plans, memories, photos, pets we had as kids, food....[:0]

I hear there was some old codger up here in Cheeseland who already had a product called "Bucktail Bath" patented. Uhhhh maybe that was "Bucktooth Beth."

Cripes, that was a completely different story!

Tie them to the antena on your car and drive through the car wash... Seriously, for as much as they go through water they should already be cleaned. Beats me.

Ranger, This is a mildew problem and all you have to do is get a pot a boil them for a couple minutes with a little dish soap. Try to dry them before you put them back in the box.[:knockout:] [:bigsmile:]
