    Default shedded snake skins

    i have a pet snake and she shedds her skin every few weeks and i was wondering if there are any flies that incorporate snake skins or if you have any ideas for a snake skin fly. i imagine it would be for a fish imitation. there is a problem though. it is pretty dry so its not very flexible. but i have a lot so i was wondering if anyones got any ideas?

    I will watch this thread closely, as I have 6 pet snakes myself. I have never thought about using their shed skins. John
    I wish you all everlasting flies and tight lines.

    Wing material?
    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.

    I have kept snakes as pets for over 47 years now. I just like them. I have 6 different kinds. My six include an Eastern Hog Nose, an Hondurin Tangerine Milk Snake, a Nelsons Albino, a chocolate California King an Albino Corn Snake and a Regular Corn Snake. All are kept in their own Tanks securely Locked. None are poisoness. John

    Not snuggly pets but very interesting.
    I wish you all everlasting flies and tight lines.
