Hi Matt,

It is Scuplin wool, can get it from Lakeland or Orvis.  Comes in a range of colours, many use white and colour with markers as appropriate or you can tie in white or cream on the underside then use whatever on the top to make the fly more realistic.  I'm lazy so use one colour for the entire head.

Cheers

Ben

Hi Folkms,

Just wanted to pass on my belated thanks to Ben for a very instructive evening (and yes I am another one looking through the tackle shops for shooting heads, etc) and to everyone else for the craic!   :z16  Its not always you get such a relaxed learning atmosphere amongst blokes.

Hope to meet up with youse again and maybe a wet a fly or two, too.

All the very best,

Andy
