yak hair
Does anyone other than me use yak hair as a substitute for polar bear, and what else do you use it for? John

No problem FIREMAN, I know it makes a good sub for polar bear, but would also like to know if anyone uses it for other tying. Thanks again John

I use yak hair for saltwater Clousers. Works well, has great translucency, and is durable fished around oyster bars and toothy fish. Sparse is better.

Hey Lee I read it as peanut butter the first time and had to look again. Or maybe J.C. is adding protien attractant to his flies http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/smile.gif.

I can not find real Polar Bear in my area that is why I use yak hair. Thanks for the replys, John

Someone just had a post with a link and they had real polar bear. It was expensive like $13 for a piece. Pricey, Im not sure what the stuff goes for.
Thanks,
