Product information is sometimes assumed everyone knows! The more short vids like this that explain in clear concise information and or differences, the more you educate the masses, which include a beginner Tyler at 63 years young . Keep them coming !

Thank you Tim for all of your insights over the years!

Great explanation. I’ve always had trouble getting goose biots to stay put on the shank when tying patterns like the Prince. I’ll try not snipping off that bit on the end to see if it makes for a good anchor.

Ive been trying to use the long ones for tails this whole time... thanks guys.

Excellent overview I wish you touched on synthetic body quills to round out this perspective for us

Turkey biots or turkey biot quills. Is there a difference?

Hey Tim, do you have any tips for tying those slippery biots on the Prince nymph?

Been tying for over a year now and I’ve been using wrong side of biot feather 🤦🏼‍♂️😂wondered why it never looked as good as the videos!

How about wet fly feathers. I think I need partridge I keep trying wood duck but I think the fibers are too long....
