Great Day in the Morning ! Wonder how many peacock feathers it took to make the 
dress, and how
much the total cost was.  That thing would keep the entire VFB in feathers for 
a year. Probably take
a John Deere tractor hooked to a rope around her waist, to help her move 
forward. :-D 

Now, I have a Question.  All of us use peacock herl in making fly bodys, etc. 
but how do ya'll use
the rest of the feather. This is a Dumb question I know, but I don't know the 
answer.  And, as ya'll
know, this Ole Texan ain't bashful.

 There was a fly I saw several years ago, think it was in the first
 'Flytyers Almanac', that used the quill as an under body for a sandeel
 pattern. Looked pretty good to.


The lengths of herl are also used as an over wing on saltwater patterns.
