Bobbins are the critical tool in tying since they must keep smooth tension on the thread spool and have super smooth inserts to apply the thread to your fly. To this end, Dr. Slick has created two series of bobbins that handle these tasks with ease. Both series have delrin feet for smooth tension on the thread spool and have either dual ceramic or titanium oxide funnel inserts for smooth application of thread to fly.

Calf Tail can be used as a wing and tail material in dry flies and as tail in streamers. Try also in small sized salmon flies. Maybe the most famous fly using calf tail is Royal Wulff, which is a very efficient fly. In Royal Wulff, the calf tail is making the wing structure just right.
