I found a deal on possum pelts. Only one problem there don’t seem to be many trying recipes for dry flies and nymphs. I don’t tie many streamers.

I’m sure I’ve turned to the right people for help in this situation.
I’ll supply some fur to the best contributions.

There’s more fine print but at my age I can’t remember what the heck it is.

i've been looking for a possum pelt for the ragworm streamer pattern i tied in the fly swap. i wound up using rabbit as i couldn't source some possum.

Can you suggest a couple of types of flies that you use it for?
