Saltwaterflies.com, Feathercraft, and Sightcastflies. Locally Living Waters down in Round Rock.

Various, a few feathers from hunters I know. J. Stockyard usually has what I want, Hook and Hackle is another, but is a little more limited on selection. I’ve ordered materials from saltwaterflies.com, but it’s been a while. Lurepartsonline is another to look at. I shop around a little, sometimes, someone will run a special on hooks or something.

Hobby lobby for things like sheet foam, glass beads, and some yarn.

Went to Living Waters today, but one of the items I needed he doesn't carry.

I'll check out some of these places ya'll mentioned.

Yes, not every vendor carries the same stuff. Sometimes, it’s hard to find a particular item.

Bps or fishing tackle unlimited around H-town. A lot of stuff can be bought at craft stores too.

I've bought from Barlow's online a few times.

I don't know why I didn't just go in the store. I drive by at least a couple of times a month for work.

I could of saved $10 postage each time.

Agreed. One thing to note about Barlow‘s (at least before the world went upside down) is they are only open Monday-Friday. I believe their hours are 10-6 M-Th and 10-4 on Friday, but they might open at 9 am. Can’t remember as it has been too long since I’ve been there.
