Thats what I did a couple of years a go when I went grocie shopping with my wife.

Its to the point that I can't go anywhere without saying. Hey I could use that for my desk or for tying some fly.

Probably cheaper than the $4.00 bucks you pay for one packaged feather. I love the stuff for long tails when marabou just doesn't cut it.

Dornug,

Another tyer on the board has a jointed body damsel pattern with a two tone spun ostrich body wrap. Great fly but I never bookmarked it and I can't find it again. Maybe if he see's this he can link it to this post. Great look to it...

I find myself looking down aisle, in the store, that I normally wouldn't.
