I tied a dozen last night. They are what my Dad and I call "Minkya" buggers. When my grandmother passed away several years ago, we found a couple mink stoles, the kind with the eyes and feet. We "shared" the fur, and use it to tie wooly buggers. I tied brown ones last night, also with vintage ostrich herl that I recently found. It has to be over 50 years old, but still seems very tough. We have done very well on steelheads with these, and have used them on the trout streams that we fish also. Let me know when tomail them. Bill Turner, the Fishmonger
