Hi Greg,

I use all of the dark to moderately dark fur from the mask in hare's ear dubbing. (I leave some of the fur untouched to clip off later to use the guard hairs for tailing.) I clip off all of the dark and medium fur at one time and mix it all together to put in a small zip lock to use as needed.

The lighter color fur can be used for lighter nymphs, light color dries such as the light tan elk hair caddis, or other ligter colored dubbing needs.

Regards,

Gandolf
