Last week I ordered some squirrel tails from Ken and Elaine (Fly Tying Furs). Three days later I had a box filled with some of the thickest tails I have ever seen. I can easily see the difference between a squirrel harvested in the winter as opposed to the summer … or, it could be that the squirrels up north just have thicker fur. Nonetheless, they were wonderful! To top it off, a coyote tail and a big bucktail were thrown in as a bonus. I don’t know about you, but any time I get a bonus like that it’s worth shouting about. THAT’S AWESOME.
They sell the #1 squirrel tails for 65 cents. That’s easily 2/3 less than what I can find in the flyshops where I live. Also, the tails were in great shape. They were flat, neatly trimmed, and did not stink at all.
The shipping was fast and the product came with a guarantee – you don’t pay for your order until you have inspected what you’ve bought – if you don’t like it you don’t have to buy it.
I just wanted to put in a plug for one of our sponsors. My experience could not have been better. If you need furs, tails, hair, and various types of plummage then consider Fly tying Furs – Ken and Elaine will take care of you.
