About 15 years ago I found, dead in the road close to where I live a adult male Otter. The animal had just been hit while crossing the road by a Logging Truck. So I stopped and picked it up, and later skinned it out.
Does anyone have any good fly pattern ideas. The fur has an oily feel to it, I have kept it rolled up in cedar chips, and have checked it for bugs it is still in good shape.
It is a little heaver/thicker than Muskrat fur and about the same color. I guess the best tying would be for nymphs.
