I forgot to mention, After wrapping the body, apply a coat of head cement on it to protect the Moose mane.

Tied in both lengths of hair with one behind the other. Wrapped them together at the same time on the shank giving me the alternating colors for the body.

I took a smallish grizzly hackle and pulled all the bards off both sides and used it for a quill body. CHEAP and functional.

And one tiny whiff of bleach gives me the worst headaches I have ever had. So, does anybody either have some they'd trade, or know a place I can buy them for less than $3.95 per 24??
