Default GRHE question

I wonder if there's a link out there with a sketch of a hare's mask, and
sections marked out (like one of those butcher's guides for steaks, yum)
that name the regions and the properties for each, as well as which flies
those particular hairs are good for. Anyone? MC?

For smaller flies, I don't use the hare's fur, but dubbing. I tie grhe down to
size 22 and do not use the fur. There is a lot of dubbing out there that could
be used. I use Hareline Dubbin and the fish don't seem to mind.

I also tie PTs using just brown thread and the gold wire rib. They have worked
*very* well on my Maine waters.
