Product Description
David Mangum is one of the premier tarpon guides on Florida's Gulf Coast. He developed his Mangum's Dragon Tail for use in a variety of streamer flies. Made from an amazing new poly-based synthetic material, Dragon Tails move and undulate like no other material. By using various retrieval techniques, you can make it dance or swim with a snake-like action. Made for streamers, the Dragon Tail can also be shortened and used for a variety of body, wing and tail applications. Easy to tie in, color fast and durable. We sell Hareline’s version with its exclusive UV2 treatment. Five tails per package.
Mangum's UV2 Dragon Tails are 7-8.5" long with a .75" diameter at their midsection. They provide your patterns with unbelievable action and movement!
New Mangum's Mini Dragon Tails are 5-6" long with .50" diameter at their midsection. Also have phenomenal action for smaller patterns.
Use this material to tie big patterns for predator fish in freshwater or saltwater environments. The full 7" length is great for hooks 3/0-5/0, whereas with smaller hooks, we recommend you cut the tail back a bit. You don't want to trim too much though, because you won't get as much action out of the material. Just think of the possibilities for pike, bass, muskie, saltwater fish, and more!
