A Better Blend

I've been busy at the blender playing with the new yarns and fibers I acquired. Mohair, mystery fiber, STS, rabbit, squirrel, floss, the list goes on. All are spectral blends. All enhance your awesomeness.

KB
The highlights in this blend reminded me of those foggy days of campus life and the journeys to fantasyland we used to take. KB for kind buds. Reds, purples, oranges, yellows, if you've seen the primo stuff you'll understand. You've been thunderfucked!

Moxie
A mohair and seal substitute blend. This dub has got the stuff.

Wet Seal
An improved version of Wet Seal called Sealy Dan.

Cognac Heather
UV Cognac Heather
The Paton's Classic Wool in Cognac Heather is the bomb. An easy yarn to work with and great spectral highlights. UV is also an option.

Supersonic Scud
Supersonic. This blend will rock the scud underworld.

Oh yeah, did I mention that it tie likes like a charm and looks the shiznit?! Yeeeaaah boooy!

For Your Eyes Only

When Singlebarbed told me that he literally had risked life and limb to smuggle some Classified materials into the Roughfisher Command Post, I thought he was putting me on until I saw proof. He warned me of the inclement danger inherent when handling this stuff and told me to survey my surroundings before opening. He was right, this stuff should be locked in a vault in Fort Knox.

For Your Eyes Only
Regarding the classified contents of the container:
You all are on a need to know basis, and right now you don't need to know.
All I can divulge is that this stuff rocks the shit and will blow your mind. It will change the face of fly tying forever.


End Transmission.

Watchout Rocky

Next time those squirrels are gorging at the bird feeder or damaging your trees, think smart and put those critters to use.

Pine Squirrel Tails
Harvested from the American Red Squirrel, Tamiasciurus hudsonicus. The red squirrel has a distinct dark barring and almost a bleached out look at the tip of the tail hair fibers. This will will make for an interesting presentation when tied in as a tail, almost like that of Coq de Leon, but heavier. Fairly short, coarse, and inexpensive, red squirrel tails are also great for using as a dubbing base for a buggy nymph blend. I can't wait to apply this to some Thunderbirds or Admiral Akbars.
