EDIT: 3-5 capes, apparently. Sorry, misunderstood you. It's pretty hard to follow conversations on any forum when there are several conversations going on at once. It's easier if you quote the guy you are talking to or refer to the post that you are asking about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't want to waste my original Betters-dyed possum or even just my possum dubbing that's mixed to match it on a fly with the body covered with hackle, so I used cinnamon dubbing with some copper dubbing mixed in. The possum dubbing is strictly for flies that have the body exposed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
petelangevin 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2020 Makes sense to me, Keep frans dubbing as an example for when you begin to dye your own. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samsonboi 0 Report post Posted May 10, 2020 Yeah. I tied up a couple "keeper" flies with it, but the rest I'm going to keep. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
