Re: Fox Squirrel dubbing

I prefer Fox Squirrel over the rest 'cuz I think it is "spikier". Ray - got our 1st dusting here - 4". EVERYONE HEAD FOR THE DITCHES! Don't know where the Ohio folks learned to drive, but it wasn't Michigan! :D :D

Re: Grouse and Grouse

Hi Ron.
I really like tying with wool. Lots of colors/variations, nice to work with, AND available most anywhere. Really nice tie, like the body color. :)

Re: Hare's Ear Plus Soft Hackles

Been using it for quite a while, heard about it from same source, and really like it for most dubbing purpose. I really think the small amount of Antron helps. :)

Re: Peacock-Furnace and Wren (wool) Soft Hackle

Absolutely lovely fly, Ray. Wool is a wonderful material to work with. PLUS it's cheap, and you can find plenty of colors to mix. :D
