Thank you all for the advise so far!!!

Well, Crotalus and Mr. Castwell has brought up good and valuable points. I have been bow hunting for more years than I care to count, and I know the value of using the right arrow for the right game. I have taken a number of squirrels with my bow during the years, but until recently have never thought to use the hair for fly tying. I know ... I know!!!!

Anyway Crotalus, or anyone else for that matter, where can I find a place to buy a good Fox Squirrel Skin??? I have never seen them for sale anywhere!!

Mr. Castwell, your comments on flu-flus made me LMAO!!!!!!! I used to bird and rabbit hunt with an uncle that used those things. I think I will always rememerb him TRYING to hit a bird with those arrows!!!

Now just a couple of last questions for all. Where can I get Borax,what is it, and do you coat the entire hide / fur in it???


Sincerely,
Reg
