FlyTieDad 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 Hello, I found myself at a thrift shop over the weekend and got a great deal on a LOT of brown and tan chenille. It's more of a flat style. Thing is, I'm not sure what to do with all of it. Any suggestions on what I could tie? I'm selling some on eBay at a reasonable cost but I sure would like to use as much of it myself. Thanks for any suggestions. FlyTieDad Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flat Rock native 0 Report post Posted March 27, 2017 Wooly worms, buggers, Winged Wets (eg., Rio Grande King) anything brown or tan & sinking, that fish will eat. Search here with chenille as part of your query, or Google Images of "fly patterns with chenille" - this sounds like a good find> Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure i understand what flat chenille is tyhough. A lot of chinelle is round and fluffy but this will lay flat. Seems pretty good for smaller flies as well. Thanks for the suggestion!
