Garry: Is that the "furry foam"??? I saw Lefty Kreh tying a crayfish similar
using the "furry foam" he called it.. and I found a piece of it today.. I
cannot wait to give it a try... I also have a material that I found today
that ppl here might be interested in, and some of you have the same material
I bet... It would be great for any shellback material, from a crawfish,
stonefly, you name it... I have chronic low back pain, and must use (among
other things) these patches called "Lidoderm" which have lidocaine in
them... And the backing that you peel off and throw away is a clear hard
plastic, or Mylar, and had a tiny diamond pattern stamped into it.. It looks
to me that each side of the diamonds would measure about 1.5 mm. And, I
colored some of this today with perm markers, and it works great
too..Anyway, I have been throwing these plastic pieces away, but it dawned
on me after using a patch today.. The patches are about 4" X 6" and would
tie 100 crawfish or other shellbacks or more...Or, they would make good
wings on flies.. Specially this foam stonefly that I caught a ton of
bluegills on the last two seasons.. Anybody who wants one to try, let me
know and I'll start sending them out as I use the patches.. No pun intended,
but "my pain is your gain" LOL...If you use these patches.. Check out this
the next time you peel one.. Chuck

After sending Allan, a copy of the pictures I took earlier today, he said
they were clear enough for him to get the idea of what I was talking
about. So here are the links:
