What's the most unusual hair you have used to tie with?


On average, your heart beats 100,000 times a day. One day, one of those heartbeats will be your last. Then what?

The answer is found in Jesus Christ who said "I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." John 10:10

I havent used a lot of exotic hair. I like deer belly and body hair. That it can be spun and trimmed really allows for some custom touches. I have some Yak hair, but havent done much with it. Yak is pretty stiff and coarse. Calfs tail, I never use it really. I think I got it for a bend back. Some other things like rabbit and fox are more like fur.

Probably Javelina. You don't see very many fly recipes listing that one, but it makes a good mouse whisker...

Human hair, did it just once.
