Seriously though, I like when people post thier mistakes as well as thier successes. That is what really helps us all to learn.

I agree with flyfishingwright, sharing mistakes helps us to learn.

 

I have bags of parrot feathers my parents keep sending me, big and small feathers, mostly light green, and a snake might be a good way to use up some of them, lots of scales on a snake. Now I'm wondering what to use for the underbody? Stiff and bendable like wire, fixed into shape, or something that remains easy flexible and wiggleable... I really liked Steves idea to have a rattle on the end of the tail.

I've got a ratlesnake planned out, only in my head though. I wanna tie one actual size, probably around 6' long, coiled up ready to strike. I've got the whole thing thought out, just no time to tie it. :ripped: Someday.
