Default Paint brush tails

I've seen the suggestion to use paint brush fibers as cheap "May Fly Tails"

This seems like a great idea, but before I tie up 800 flies g are there
any problems with this? I specifically notice that the brushes I grabbed
from the barn seem to have stiffer fibers than "micro fibbits" and I wonder
about them making flies poor hookers ??
