Tying Materials...
Imported from Norway, very long, very fine hair from a cloned sheep. I have a very limited supply.
This is the original soft and swimming Flashabou that makes a sparkling addition to any salt or freshwater fly.
This fine suede chenille is ideal for tying small sand eels, small cinder worms, San Juan worms, Baby Buggers, and many other effective flies.
