I don't think I know where to tell you findem', but I think I need some educating:D ........Whats a "flier"? .........What's a "freckle"? ..............and what's a "flick tail"
I'm in Richmond, VA. I can't find any flick tails anywhere. Does anyone have a place online (hopefully) where I can order some 1/64 (I think) chartreuse flick tails? I have a swamp pond south east of me that is chock full of fliers and freckle that love the chartreuse flick tail. The freckle treat it like a minnow and the fliers treat it like a shrimp.
Let me know please!

I sell them but they are not identical. Mine have more motion to them. All I had in front of me was the green. I have chartreuse plus other colors and in smaller sizes.

In Arkansas a ''Flier'' is a type of small sunfish. But never heard of a 'freckle '' ,that's a new one on me too!Originally Posted by luvjign

"Freckle" is a Virginia nickname for Crappie. A "flier" is in the sunfish family. They are copper colored, have smaller mouths than a bream (or "brim" or bluegill) and feed on small water bugs, freshwater shrimp and other tinier eats.
The flick tail I'm looking for is manufactured and/or packaged by Fall's Tackle. It's barrel shaped body with a small flat tail at the end and comes on a card with 2 hooks; each with a red, black and white painted jig head.
Thanks.

Thanks for the explanation............One thing's for sure, there's no limit to what you can learn on this site.

Thanks.
Question for you. How difficult is it to simply design my own form and then pour'em? I dont' mind eliminating the maker, suppliers, etc.
PS. The Falls Tackle Flick Tail is that good....
Good question. I actually design and cast my own stuff. Get ready for weeks of work and moments of failures. Anything pertaining to casting and pouring is generally a military secret. I found I spent as much $$ then if I had just let someone else do all the work, but I wanted a special application.
