Posts: 2335 Location: SE, WI. | jkurtkrauss - 9/3/2026 8:59 PM “Bucktails” I recently tied with Flashabou from Musky Shop are all tangled and matted up. Is this fixable? Is there a better flashabou option? I think I used the magnum type on these. If a hook gets stuck in it, you have to cut it out. usually when the tinsel is old and sits on the shelf for years is when they get matted and sticky. Try to return it! Try using a wide tooth comb to untangle the tinsel. Yes, comb it out The .016, 1/16” saltwater tinsel seems to hang , tangle less in the treble . One of the things I do with my custom builds, is to try and stop the coiled wire from spinning on the shaft. That will also help in the tangling. Another thing I use with the mag tinsel is deer hair over the tinsel. This also controls the tinsel with less tangling. JD Customs | ||
