I keep an eye on ebay for scrap fur pieces. I've got enough so I only buy things I really want, but occasionally a deal comes along that's too good to pass up. Got all of this from a single listing. That's a DVD case in a couple of the pictures to show scale. Not sure why the camera made...

I've got about 100 1/16 and 1/32 ounce tube jig heads with aberdeen hooks. The hook sizes range from 10 to 6. I still use tube jigs occasionally, but I've switched to sickle hooks due to the wider gap. These will probably never get used in a tube, so I was thinking of tying on them. Has anyone...

I'm a sucker for chenille. Picked this up at Wholesale Sports while visiting my parents over Christmas. They call it Kaktus chenille. Comes in a bunch of different colors and three sizes. I wanted to get some lighter pink and white, but they were all out. The cost was $1.50 for two yards...

Can't take credit for this, since I found it on Slickdeals.net, but the deal is so awesome and the tools included are useful for lure making so I just had to repost it. http://slickdeals.net/permadeal/65344/lowes-kobalt-14piece-mini-pliers-tweezers-set For $10, you get needle nose pliers, bent...

There's three places to buy tying materials locally. Sportstman's Warehouse, a Cabela's retail store, and a local fly shop. I started tying in the summer of this year, when the feather thing was hitting full force. You could not buy a rooster saddle hackle feather for love nor money. I checked...

Tied these as part of a trade with crappiejgr. He supplied the spinner heads, I made the ties. Snapped their picture before sending them off. Heads are unpainted and Harbor Frieght white with glitter nail polish. Bodies are minner/shiner and white chenille with white and gray fox and some...

I've got a lot of arctic fox tail hair: Really nice fur, off white color. Should dye up very nicely. It's cut up into 2" strips of hide. Their hair is just amazingly dense. There's enough hair on each piece to tie 200+ crappie jigs. Looking to trade a few pieces. Ideally I'd like some 1/8...

I bought some arctic fox tails from a couple of different online sources, and the first tail came yesterday. It's really soft and fluffy, with one small area of dark tipped fur. I'm planning on cutting it into sections and dying it. I've bought some dyed body hair swatches in the past, but I...

Sportsmans Warehouse sells some chenilles that I swear look just like ice or cactus chenille at about 1/3rd the price. The brand name is Troutsmen Enterprises, and it's labeled as glimmer chenille. The funny thing is, they sell Estaz and ice chenille as well, and I can't tell the difference...

I powder coat my jigs, but recently I've been experimenting with dipping the painted heads in glitter nail polish for added effects. Nail polish has a bad reaction with some plastics, but I keep my hand tied jigs separate so it's never been that big of a deal. However, I've been asked to make...
