I am fisherman and a fly tyer, but not yet a hunter. I am looking for feathers from goose, wood duck, pintail, quail, grouse and many other birds. I could also use some fur and hair (deer, bear, fox, possum, rabbit, etc). I am set on turkey and pheasant this year.

If any of you folks get a bird or mammal and have no use for the materials, I am happy to pick them up. I live in the South Deerfield area.

I am happy to bring back to you some flies tied with the materials you give me as a trade.

Keep me in mind. You can always PM me.

Thanks-

Joe

FF, PM sent. TJTOM, for pintail I am mostly looking for the flank feathers. They make killer salmon streamers for the Q. I am happy to make you some from your own birds.

Good luck in AK. My wife went to school there, and I want to get out there some day.
