ya'll got any good bulk material and supply places give me a heads up I'm gonna stock up for the winter.:
I was wondering the same thing. I just go to BPS or Cabelas to get my materials. Sorry:(
captinhooks is good for hooks and cabelas is good for powder paint and i am on crack so i like to go to BPS cause i cant wait for shipping
oh and my neighbor gave me 400 pounds of soft lead so i don't know where you get that cheap
:eek:WOW, wish I lived closer to ya:DQuote:

Chenille comes in skeins which is 72 yards and how I buy it, but unless you use a lot of the same color it will last more than through winter.
So give me some kind of clue as to what you mean.

Well Skip I was looking for lots of colors but small qtys. I like the grizzles you use but I only found them in full hackle skins. I do know good places to get some supplies but the qty. would be more than I need until I find what works best around here.
skip I gotta drive past many one day and come see your setup. Too bad the don't do a McDonalds big crappie splash. You north or south of penalton bridge. Think that's how you spell it.
Yeah one of these days Skips wife is gonna have a yard sale while he's out fishing and he's gonna come back to an empty room. Hope I'm driving by when she has it

If you are near Many you are not that far away.

Only problem is bulk means a lot of that product. I can't even buy feathers in pound bulk because I have way too many colors and it would take up way too much room.Quote:

If the ones you are talking about are on jigs they most likely didn't come from capes. I just ordered, but if you want on my next order I can get you some nice hackle, but this place is not the cheapest hackle. Example they only sell saltwater neck hackle in solid colors so I have to get a good many of my colors from regular fly shops like you can buy from. However the same quality in variant colors are not any more costly than their solid colors. These are a little longer than normal neck hackle you buy strung (these are strung as well)
If you want call me sometime as we can talk or shoot me an email at ....
