{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Raccoon Zonker?

Never worked with raccoon,however,  zonkers made with rabbit strips will be a fuller fly than a bucktail streamer.  The rabbit material is much softer than bucktail also,  so the fly will have more movement from the material than bucktail which is much stiffer.

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?
