Hi Harold, nice to hear from you. Can you post a small photo of your dalmation fly? It sounds interesting, as I have used dryer lint for dubbed flies, too. I have tied 'dog-flies', but for golden stones, since I have a gold-colored Shih-tzu/Lhasa-apso mix. Her long hair also make great streamers, since it is supple and flows like marabou. DonO
