Hey all,
I've been scanning this site for awhile - very informative and interesting. I'm primarily interested in learning to tie flies and crappie jigs. I have visited the jig tying thread, which is awesome. I have a question on preserving animal skins, pelts, tails, etc. I've read that the flesh and fat must be removed and washed in "mild" soap, then coated with "borax". Okay, what is considered "mild" soap and is "borax" the 20 Mule team powder you can buy?
Any help would be appreciated...
Thanks and tight lines,
Noel
