Default GRHE question

...


for small flies, and if you want a smoother body, ( i.e softer hair which

is
easily tapered etc) then use rabbit, or hare body fur. For very fine
dubbing, use rat or mouse.



Rabbit fur is one of my favourites. Bluey underfur for dun bodies and the
guard hairs for the grhe-effect. Whilst in principle I'd say rat fur should
be quite good, I would probably never ever find out for sure!
