    Hend's " Body Quill" ?

    Aaron ,
    Where the heck do i get my hands on this stuff? I usually tie my caddis larva pattens ala Oliver Edwards & Steve Thronton.Caddis Larva ,Midge Larva/Pupa,and Oliver Edwards Heptagenia /Baetis nymphs ,Pheasant Tails,Prince nymphs,And sowbugs/scuds are my go to Limestone/spring creek nymphs. On Freestone creeks I typically use realistic/impressionistic stonefly nymphs,as well as Oliver edwards Heptagenia Nymphs,also i fish soft hackles on both types of creeks with reckless abandon thay are alot of fun to fish.
    So I'm curious about this new product can ya help me locate a sourse without havin to send to europe.?

    I get my Hends Body Quill from Fly Tying Boutique. Phil gets you the order very fast. It's very nice stuff. Get the entire range of colors. It also makes a great body material for micro nymphs as well. You won't be disappointed with the material!

    Mention the idea of a nymph class to your local fly shop.

    Fly tying boutique is an online store owned by Phil Holding. He has always been wonderful to deal with. I have ordered from him a number of times and it has always come quick.

    Kevin sells fly DK quill body. It's not the same material as the Hends that he is referring to.

    No it's ok quill body... body quill almost the same I like the quill body as well, but it's an entirely different material than the Hends stuff. Hends has no US distributor. It's a shame because they have some very nice stuff.

    You'll love the material. There are so many different things that you can do with it. Where did you end up getting it from?
