Best Marabou Quills - 09/15/09 01:59 PM

Good Morning,

I need a source for good quality strung quills. I've been feverishly tying up coho jigs for tomorrow, and have run out of fl pink and cerise (thats a hint).

The last pack I bought was only about 25% good material and the other part was just short fuzzy ones. I palmer the marabou on my jigs, even though it is a pain in the ass, so I need something that works good for that.

Who/where do you all recommend I purchase from? I only have time to order on line.

I would strongly suggest hairline dubbin marabou. Their products are top notch, though, you will need to find a dealer as they do not cater to public purchase.

Backcountry Fly Shop (google it), down here in Corvallis, carries Hareline and I believe they do online sales.
