    Enormously helpful. Was tying trout nugget variations without SF blend and was trying to blend synthetics another way that just wasn’t effective. Just got some big game hair and a few other king synthetics and will be using this method to dial them in.

    Gunnar you could take those short fibers put them in a coffee grinder and make dubbing out of it and not have any waste. Keep the good stuff coming buddy.

    Nice one, Gunnar. you have fantastic skills (and patience). It's pretty hard to navigate through the various synthetic choices out there, with tying experts recommending different brands - usually ones they're aligned to as pro staff or whatever. The Squimpish guy was pretty disparaging about Farrar on one forum I read (grouping it in with other mass produced 'plasticky' fibres), which seemed a bit churlish. Presumably you don't share that view, given both are on your site.

    Squimpish fiber back ... The Chosen One is the best baitfish fly pattern.

    How close is strung fuzzy fiber to slinky hair? Ran out of chartreuse SF blend and figured I’d make my own from strung fuzz and polar flash.

      Update: strung fuzz works well enough for homemade SF blend when mixed with polar fiber. Worked even better when I mixed chartreuse strung fuzz with olive big game hair from FTD and polar fiber. Didn’t have white strung fuzzy fiber and ran out of white SF (kinky muddler eats through SF) so I mixed white big game hair, pearl polar flash, purple flashabou, and white FTD spirit hair. Still makes a great kinky muddler or seasoned geezer and this process gets much easier on the second try.
      Shout out to snake river angler in Jackson hole for having an absurd amount of unblended synthetic long fibers for blending

    what is your favorite synthetic for baitfish patterns? I haven't used "SF blend" but I use a ton of polar flash

    That waste becomes long fiber dubbing.
