Yep, it works!
Long ago I tied a bream hook streamer with tinsel and a found feather. Caught small bass until the hook was almost bare
Don't forget to check out the Halloween stuff now guys they have some good stuff there for tying
Actually agree with snake River, the fake hair on the Halloween mask and such can have some good looking stuff!

Casually clipping dogs at a dog park is a winner too

I have Shepherd now. No need to cut anything from her. Few seconds with a brush and you will have plenty
Remember guys the Halloween hair will have all kinds of wild colors and don't think you dogs will offer the color range, lol!

Thanks never thought about that. Great idea.
I go to Hobby Lobby this time year and stock up on tinsel flash. The great thing is it is cheap. $1 for 500 strands.
I draw the line!!Quote:

My calico cat is a long hair. Sheds a lot. Makes great dubbing. Right now there is a lot of road kill for free. My wife hit a doe, some body wanted the body, I got the tail.Quote:
