For any of you that might be interested. You can color Sally Hansens easily with a permanent marker. Get a marker(cheap if you wish) in the color desired and take apart and put ink in bottle or the foam that is holding it.

Good tip Kahuna, But I like to whip finish the head with the right colour thread and that way you need only Clear Sally Hansens.
Some say fiddly but it works for me "G" Jax

Getting Old has it's advantages. It slows you down just enough to get your timing for tightening into a trout Just Right.
You can use the colored Hansen for Coating white feathers. ie; the wing on the FOTW 1998 Green Leaf Hopper with you have to coat anyway.

Kahuna,
There are so many incredible colors of nail polish on the market now ... black, purple, the old stand by red, and a honken' bunch with glitter built in ... put a coat of one of them on, then pop on the SH! Heads, wingcasings, wings ... you can have the fanciest colored flybox around!

Trouts don't live in ugly places
Yep you can do that also. But with the Sally Hansens and permanent marker you can make it as light or dark as you want. I like the transluscent effect. But colored nail polsh I like to use also.
Thanks!
