I'm originally from Ohio so I order from Jann's whenever I can. They just opened up a BPS store here in Leeds which is about 20 minutes away so I find myself driving up there at least once a month!
I like Krystal flash or flashabou mostly.
Get you some midge in rainbow color it draw's off the surrounding color's and just accent's them no more than 4 strand's in tail or 2 for laterial line's.
Alright flatfish, why didn't I post this before the swap. lol Oh well, I put a few more than that in my jigs, not much to snip out a few here and there and won't hurt my feelings one bit, guess I like my jigs perty. ;) I did order the midge flash as well as flashabou accent. I have some of the tinsel that Skip mentioned, found it at a craft shop and paid waaaaaaay more than at the link Skip posted. :o It just doesn't have the same sparkle to it, but I do use it on some things.
they also have one called Angel Hair flash that's pretty small size

I use the Angel Hair in some of my smaller jigs.I'ts like a super fine tinsel.I get mine from Feathercraft which is based right here in the St.Louis area.I know they have a catalog and a website.They are one of the largest fly tying outlets in the country.I think they are worth checking out.
