They are rastafarian llamas, if memory serves correctly. Maybe some Andean trout fishers have patterns, but I live in scotland, so I was raised to tie clyde style... light, wet, minimalistic and hatch matching. LoL Did you get this stuff from Al-Queda? You are thinking of anthrax... dunno if it kills trout though. :-) John "When the only tool you own is a hammer, every problem begins to resemble a nail." -- Abraham Maslow

Thanks Alpaca is great for streamers. Its go a great long staple so I just comb it out by holding the base of the staple and using a wire dog brush. Use it for winging material in your flies, as it is very supple. It doesnt have much transluscency so use some flash-abou underneath to give it some flash. You can also spin it into wool head flies. -- Frank Reid Reverse email to reply
