I'm Guilty I hunt for grouse and woodcock ,dove and what ever else I have
time for but regretfully I have no dog. but once had a English setter that
was a fine dog.
I save all the grouse skins and wooduck skins some turkey wing and tails,
goose quills. some woodcock skins, I'm looking for some snipe because I've
seen the price on them and enjoy tying and fishing soft hackles. I used to
save the cdc of ducks and geese but I can get it relatively cheep and have
it stockpiled.

Just curious.
I mean, after all, apart from the rest, there is a small issue of
getting fly tying material for free ;-)

Who just had his Gordon Setter help him to shoot two capercaillie hens,
two hazel hens, two black grouse and 15 ptarmigans in six days. I just
love that dog so don't you suggest using her for fly tying material
;-)

Have two Gordon Setters who are great Grouse and Pheasant dogs. One
loves Woodcock; the other turns her nose up at them. I don't tie flies.
