dwiltshire 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2011 Thanks for the comments. Yes - raffia / swiss-straw for the the bottom flies. Karsten - you too buddy. The shell back for the middle flies is just an olive shell bak stretch. Nothing exotic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The shell back for the middle flies is just an olive shell bak stretch. Nothing exotic. Awesome, my local craft store was closing out swiss straw and I got like 14 colors for a couple bucks. They are 1ftx12ft .. Enough to last a lifetime and some! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
