Jdecoudres Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 I heard buying marabou by the bulk is cheaper but having trouble finding it that way on the net. If anyone know a fly shop or where you can buy it by the bulk would appreciate some names. Thanks
Gavin Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Figure a pound of it would fill a couple paper grocery sacks....be wary of ordering fly tying materials in bulk...FWIW...I usually buy the plumes as oppossed to strung blood marabou....you gotta pull it off the stem & measure it before you tie it in...but that is a good habit to get into anyway. Cheers.
Idylwilde Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Also in the bulk you have to be careful of moths getting in it and ruining it. Quiet a mess! Take a Child Fishing they are the future of the sport.
Jdecoudres Posted June 10, 2012 Author Posted June 10, 2012 So did anyone figure out where you could buy it in bulk? Thanks
Wayne SW/MO Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 I've bought a lot of bou over the years amd truthfully I would never buy over an ounce. All turkeys aren't created equal and if it's so so, or if you use it in different ways like I do you're stuck with a lot that you might never use. I would stick with the bigger packs that you can find on line. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted June 11, 2012 Root Admin Posted June 11, 2012 I can get bulk marabou from Wapsi but I'll have to check the price. Also depends on what type of marabou... strung or loose.
Nortrad Posted June 12, 2012 Posted June 12, 2012 Got some good stuff in a larger pack at BPS, only comes in olive, black and white though.
