I cant remember the last time I messed around with deer fur, I almost forgot what a pain in the arse it is...

kinda lousy tie, but it'll ketch some basses:

this one is slightly better, if I continue to tie a few they will all improve, the next better than the last, BUT I still prefer foam poppers & divers (but bambi fur is still cool)

Honestly back in the day I tried to make my deer hairs more and more packed/pretty/professional,

and I still love fishing hair but I don't even bother with trying to pack it tight any more, I just tie/fish surface film bugs with a few loose wraps of hair and general form.

Besides I'll never amount to any kinda Bass Bug hair proficiency laugh

Mike, that's awesome stuff, as I've come to expect from your vise. It makes me all tingly (in a manly way) to see you using Bambi fur again. smile
