As limited as I am locally on my jig tying selections,thought I found a pretty good buy today.Stopped by my only local fly shop today,just killing time.Would have never bought a 6 yd pack for what they had it marked,$7.95 but for $1.00 ea I got most of what he had** ;) Little longer fiber than what I would normally use, but dipped it in a bowl of water and WOW** !! Every fiber moved....Just needs a field test now.http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y71...mystery005.jpg

Awesome deal - great looking jig - nice tie
Looks really good!
Great deal,awesome looking material and tie. Always look for the clearances,you never know what you'll find. At that price I would have cleaned him out. I'm a sucker for a great deal.
nice looking jig and should be a good 'catcher'--shu
Well what the heck is it? I don't see anything at all?

Skip Im sure its nothing new.Its from Orvise,which is where the $8.00 price tag came from ;) Id guess.
They called it tri-lobular chenille..It was just much longer and finer fibers than Ive seen.
And yes 1/16
Ah this time the picture came through. The first time I looked there was no pic and everyone was telling you it looked great. So I was thinking you moved it and lost the link or something.Quote:

I do have something close to that in looks and it's large cactus chenille in Gold/Silver Holo.
Now I have some other maybe you can help me figure out how to use it.
The stuff stands out like 1 1/4" so it is the same kind of material, but so long it is hard to think of how to use it. I tried it as a collar, but it will reach past the hook on some size jigs.
