Technically, Deb is correct. The tiger mouse is a stack-'n-pak. I have a
method for spots, but that is a secret.
I refer to both spinning deer and stacking deer as 'flaring, because more
materials than deer will flare, even a lot of synthetics.
The entire mouse pattern is in the 1995 Patterns of the Masters, from the
Livingston FFF 'clave.
Should I have Byard post it on the vfb?

I forgot to add.... Those are stacked deer hair they aren't spun. To
get
frog spots... for example do a search on stacking deer hair.

I'm sure Don O can better explain stacking deer hair to you but you
basically build the colors up on top of each other. Don't spin them
around
the hook. Same thing for stripes that don't go all the way around the
fly.

Subject: [VFB] Patterns in Spun Hair?
Hi everyone,
First off, a WELL DONE to mike bliss for hosting the go- to swap!!
I just got the bunch of flies back, and all i can say is... WOW! I
have to apologize, yet again, for being so late with my flies...
On another note, congrats to DonO for his deer-hair flies in the
recent issue of 'The Art of Angling Journal'! These flies (and
admittedly others) got me thinking... How, exactly, does one
incorporate 'tiger-print patterns' into the spun hair? I have the fly
tyer's benchside reference, but don't even know what to look up...
Also, how does one incorporate feathers in the fly and still spin
completely around the feather? (I'm thinking of the turtles using
english jay for the flippers, for those who have access to the recent
journal).
I hope these questions are clear enough... Tight wraps and lines,
Pete
