They are a high end fly fishing store and would rather sell the fishing equipment. Was in there about two weeks ago to get some 3 D eyes (they carry Mirage) and the stock is getting low – on everything. They use to carry a lot of Hoffman necks now the selection is very thin.

    You want some good cheap prices - check out ff46 - besides you will be supporting a CDC member. For feathers check out tackle-craft.com.
    LedHed you are at a disadvantage living in Cal as we don't pay the tax buying from another state.

    I agree that FF46 has a good price and supply, but Bob's may be Bob's +10 out there, but they don't charge me tax being out of state. Believe me I check all the prices.

    So let just look at price and here is the same neck hackle we all use at Bob's... Bob Marriott's Fly Fishing Store - Detail1 - 0007008300 - Strung 3-5" Neck Hackle - Fly Tying Materials - Bob Marriott's Fly Fishing Store

    At Barlow's... FISHING TACKLE for bass fishing, crappie, walleye, trout.Fishing lures, fishing hooks, lead molds. BARLOWS FISHING TACKLE.

    They are the same as I feel sure Barlow's sells Wapsi just under their own label.
    Now last time I checked $2.49 was higher than $2.25

    Don't mean to ruffle feathers, but unless it's wholesale or FF46 I don't think most beat Bob's+10, LOL! Actually if FF46 is the same as Bob's then I would buy from FF46 since he is a member here. Here is a good link to that...

    Since so many here seem to take exception to what I say I will kepp my mouth shut so if anyone actually wants some info from me I suggest you PM me. I am not going to have people shoot at me every chance they get.
