jighead Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 Hi all Okay this question came to me when brushing off my dogs winter coat and thought can i use my dogs hair for fly tying? And if anyone had used random material for fly tying ? did it catch fish? cheers Jighaed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven6411 Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 I have tied a fly using our dogs hair (black & white Papillon).Very fine hair that works a treat. It behaves like pollar fibre in the water. I got a 34cm EP in it. Have raided the kids stuffed toys when i neededa certain colour, but thats the strangest i have used. cheers steven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 I haven't directly but I remember reading in one of Greg French books (Frog Call I think it was, great read if you're interested) an interesting story. About one of Greg's friends having a fly mounted on a wall tied with pubic hair from an ex-girlfriend . Cheers Windy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steven6411 Posted November 17, 2010 Share Posted November 17, 2010 You can get an artificial fly tying material for that now. Its called KINKY FIBRE and it pulsates through the water Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
