Hello All,

I am doing some winter tying. Having made all of my most used patterns,
I want to get into some more extic stuff. Does anybody have much
experience with synthetic materials used for a grasshopper wing? I have
always used turkey, but believe that a synthetic would give me a neater,
trimmer profile that I want. Any suggestions?

Organza comes to mind, or maybe the stuff that is sold as 'sedge wing',
altough it is ridiculously expensive.
