Very nice. Ive thought about doing this with squirrel tails but didn't know if the skin would hold up or rot.

I tried to make jerk baits from chipmunk pelts when i was a kid. the action was horrible, but they looked so cool. I sure was deadly with a slingshot.

Muskrat skin dry very fast i don't think that rot will be a problem

They dry fast when the muskrat's still in them.......not so much when they're not!
