After reading yet another super fly description on the UK page, I find myself in a search, "locally", for peccary. Anyone have any idea on where peccary can be found? (preferably separated from the living animal, cleaned, and dried)
Blame the UK fly tyers ...

Trouts don't live in ugly places.
A friend is not who knows you the longest, but the one who came and never left your side.
Don't look back, we ain't goin' that way.
this what your looking for or do the British call something else Peccary? http://www.desertusa.com/magnov97/no..._collpecc.html
I would try taxidermists in the desert south west to find if they had scraps they could sell you. This site says he works on them. http://www.edwardstaxidermy.com/

Miss Betty: If you put Peccary into the FAOL search the 1st entry is Al Campbells ----
where there is pix of a Peccary barb being used on a fly. If that is what you are looking for PM me & I will send you some.

Chicago Fly Fishing Outfitters sell it.
When you can arrange your affairs to go fishing, forget all the signs, homilies, advice and folklore. JUST GO.
This is a peccary ...
Not something I'd want running around my back yard!
But, they do make beautiful flies ... http://ukflydressing.proboards.com/i...ay&thread=6199

You do know the guys in the UK are importing the hair, don't you. The critter is an American, a real native. When proper cooked over hickory for a long period of time, taste better than chicken.
