Greetings everyone !!
recently, while at a salvage store, I came across an old fur coat. I believe rabbit. I said to myself. " this will make an amazing Hairs Nymph pattern. Then it hit me, start buying unwanted fur coats ($5 - $10) for a WHOLE coat that probably cost $000's when new. I think its good KARMA to re-use the fur for a positive purpose and pay homage to the animal that was killed soley for its fur. Now I'm looking at FOX, MINK, RABBIT, BEAVER, etc, just a myriad of available furs out there that no one's buying but that's to my advantage now and to the fly tying community as a whole
Anyone else doing something similar or has an interest in doing what I'm doing?? I figure I could also shred the coats and garments, break them down to small lots, and sell them on eBay perhaps???
