bimini, since you started the SLF thread I guess you saw this by Mike K.

"--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
been picking up seal fur dubbing from john mclain at feathersmc.com, its great stuff, and affordable....colours cant be beat"

It stimulated me to go to the site and I have ordered some seals fur....it's an interesting site and here's a little info John Mclain shared with me..[by the way he seems like a class act...heck, a friend of Ronn Lucas would be]


" I don?t want to tell you your business but seal dubbing isn?t my preferred choice for dry flies. It?s great for wets and nymphs but a little too coarse for dries (my opinion). The colors are maybe a little too gaudy for matching the hatch."
