I am pretty sure James covered auctions on either Peter or Preston's podcast some months ago. I don't know all these episodes blend into one over time.

The tail is the high yield minus the bond’s when-issued yield
Positive tail means weaker than expected demand
Larger positive tail means worse auction

High yield = low price paid but thanks for clarifying the when issued part.
