Hey all,

I often hear people refer to using "red fox squirrel"tail. I live in Rhode Island, and we have what we call "red squirrels". Are these the same animals? I looked it up, but it didn't seem like there were two species of animals. If they are, should I grab the whole beastie if I find a recent road kill? What would I use it for?

I have a "red squirrel" tail in my freezer now (don't tell my wife... it's in the back!). Any suggestions for flies?

Thanks!
Hugh
