Best Christmas Decorations For Fly Tying

[Andrew324]

So I was walking home from the bar last night and found a piece of tinsel on the ground. I stuffed it in my pocket and my girlfriend asked "what are you doing that for?" and I told her I was saving it for fly tying. The tinsel will make good flashabou for tails and some legs.

Which brings me to my question: why kinds of Christmas decorations make good material to save for the bench?

I'm not real sure about what the raw materials, but I prefer these decorations. I made several of them up last year for my fishing buddies with an enclosed note that read- "in case of fishing emergency, break glass".

Wife & kids for me. Wouldn't trade them for the good ole days, but they are fun to remember.

Great idea.
