Would make lots of jigs
You use it for tails? I got so much real hair....don't know that I would ever use it.
If I am not wrong polar bear hair was used for some jigs. It was used as a tail
Yes tail,,,,Use it for a filler color,,,put it under the flashy stuff and it build things up,,,,
That should work nicely…you have a nice color assortment
Well was trying to decide if I should keep it. Have so much stuff now. Always hate to sell something and then wish I had it. But I have so much. Don't know that I'll ever use it.Quote:

I got some of this from Ken. Interesting material. I'm going to experiment with blending these like the squimpish video I posted earlier. Has some really intriguing possibilities.

Well now you need to learn how to tie using Dubbing and for sure it looks like you have enough, lol!

Yep, plenty of material to work with. The dubbing bodies will look even buggier. I might even blend the synthetic polar bear hair, opossum, and rabbit for dubbing. Lots of color choices too.
Like was said at Woodstock, if you’re too tired to chew, pass it on. Doll fly jigs were made with polar bear hair and when regulations changed and we weren’t allowed to buy it anymore, the owner of the company was allowed to continue using it because his product depended on it. When he passed, so did that permission. They were great jigs and I would try to emulate them some before I let it go. Looks to be nice stuff.
