Free for anyone that wants them.  First to reply gets them.  I have quite a few flank wood duck and a few hooded merganser feathers.  These are harvested by myself and I will mail for free. Send me a message.

Feathers are no longer available.  Thanks.

ok i got up early , looked for my glasses   10 minutes later i find them ....exactly where i left them , i make coffee ,slowest machine in the world , i set down at the bench ,good time to tie a few simple old flies ,with  nostalgic feelings running threw my  body i decide on my first fly ,the famous wolly worm ,i'm rather organized when tying and got out  what i needed .....wow i still have this old  olive thread  what a great time to use it.i did not realize  it was possessed by a anti fly fishing demon ,first i can't  get it the thread the bobbin then the bobbin was to tight no matter how i adjusted it ,it's ok it's the simplest pattern to tie . i couldn't get it to catch the hackel nor the chenille.....at this point i'm frustrated and my vocabulary is unfit for women ,children and most truck drivers .ok i have the  chenille wound up the hook shank  the hackel is looking good time to tie off ....the  blanky blank thread breaks  the hackel and chenille   unwind...i test the thread it's dry rotted and now it's in the trash can, i'm sitting here  drinking my coffee  and thinking i have enough flies for today we'll tie later .....

My go to crappie and smalllouth fly. I’ve watched a bunch of the Tim and Tom shows. Tim is one of my favorite tyers. He and Davie McPhail have taught me a lot.tim gives simple , straight forward instruction. Davie is a magician. 
If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
