Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Raccoon Zonker?

I met the Eumer Tube guy at Somerset last year. First time I'd seen Finn Racoons Zonkers at work. Great stuff

"Zonker Table" Could be a great band name.

Maybe other people have some different ideas.  when i tie zonker streamers.  i normally peal off some of the fluff so theres only the actual hide.  it seems to hold a lot tighter and less movement.

I recently tied my first zonker fly, and found it pretty hard to deal with (the packaging left it "pressed" to one side).  I'm planning on going to the beer tie (if work doesn't desire otherwise), wouldn't mind getting a zonker table going.

Found a snakehead fry pattern on line that is basically a clouser that uses raccoon zonker (that has it's color changed using perminent black and orange markers) instead on bucktail.  Anyone know how raccoon zonker acts differently compared to bucktail.  Will the bucktail not take the marker?  Does it flow in the water that differently?  Is the difference a big deal and is that even something that stores carry?
