Panama Red 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2012 IMO, can't go wrong with CCG... Much faster and easier than epoxy, less waste. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyFLYguy05 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2012 Im sorry but if you use any fur than its tough to say a comment about being against a website because they sell a certain type of fur? What give us a right to judge animals stating dog is better than another animal? All i was asking about was clear cure lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chefben4 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2012 I use regular epoxy a lot and HATE the stuff. Been looking at CCG and the like for a long time now. Im just irritated by the price of the darn flashlight. I dont know why it bugs me so much, but I think thats where they are making a ton of their money. But you cant argue with the product. Its awesome stuff. Im going get some pretty soon, just trying to figure out which kit to start with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What give us a right to judge animals stating dog is better than another animal? All i was asking about was clear cure lol Selling, transporting, manufacturing with, or importing dog fur in the U.S. violates federal law. And anybody who doesn't think dogs are special is invited to raise a hand to me in the presence of the dog in my avatar. Name another animal that will defend you with its life. And I'll comment on anything I damned well please. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluegill576 0 Report post Posted January 20, 2012 I'm not going to get into wether ccg is better than epoxy or not, but they do give a discount at the shows. I don't buy anything from bears den either because of that. Is there really a need to use the dog fur. and the temple dog isn't just killing the dog and getting it's fur off. They skin the dog alive which is completely disgusting and I don't know how anyone could use that in a fly! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All they have to do is go to a dog groomer and collect it. Geez. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All they have to do is go to a dog groomer and collect it. Geez. Yes, that's exactly what they do. The fur is on the skin and there are no dog groomers in China, which is where the stuff comes from. There are also no animal cruelty laws in China and the treatment of dogs in that country is well documented. I'm no PETA activist - I've hunted and fished since I was a child and I use legally and humanely harvested animal products for fly tying, but what is going on with the temple dog BS turns my stomach. And like I said, it's a violation of federal law. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
