Complete Coyote Tail
TL3Coyote tail is used in fly tying for its natural, versatile, and durable characteristics, which make it ideal for imitating a variety of prey like baitfish, shrimp, and crabs. The long guard hairs are great for wings and tails that maintain a realistic profile, while the soft underfur is excellent for dubbing. Its natural, mottled colors mimic underwater environments, making it a popular choice for both saltwater and freshwater flies.
Applications
Wings and tails: The long, stiff guard hairs are perfect for creating wings and tails on a variety of flies, from small baitfish and shrimp imitations to large streamers.
Dubbing: The soft underfur can be used for dubbing to create full, buggy bodies on nymphs, streamers, and other flies.
Streamers: Coyote tail can be used to create lifelike, durable streamers for targeting species like bass, trout, and larger saltwater fish.
Saltwater flies: It's a popular material for bonefish, permit, and tarpon flies, where its natural colors and movement are highly effective at mimicking crustaceans and baitfish on the flats.
Specialty patterns: It is used in specific patterns like the Acme Special nymph (using the underfur for dubbing) and the Coyote Dace (using the fur for the wing).
