Good idea. It is fuzzy... and then I can say that I was a little bit "wuzzy"
when I came up with such an idea.  ;o)

Chuck,

One of the things you'll notice about these peppers
is the broad range of
characteristics for marabou feathers.  You owe it to
yourself to tie up a
half dozen marabou leeches with just a set of
barbell eyes on the hook and
then 'fish' them in a clear container where you can
watch the marabou
'work'.  Tie some with long fine tips, some with
full barbs, some tapered,
etc. Whenever you try new marabou- 'fish' it first
to see what it acts like
in the water.

Marabou used to be from Marabou storks, but now it's
from turkeys and
chickens- so there can be a great deal of variance
in the genetic
characteristics of batches of feathers.

So if I were tying a marabou muddler, I'd be using
the fuller feathers.  If
it was a marabou streamer, I'd use the tapered
feathers- full at the base
and fine at the tips.  If I was tying a straight
leech pattern, I'd pick
long, fine tips from strung blood feathers
(http://www.myoan.net/fishing/jargon.html).  One tier here uses the
blood feathers on his buggers and then pinches off the
fine tips.

Types:    I use strung marabou blood-feathers quite
a bit.  Byard carries
these on Linesend.com  along with grizzly marabou.
Craftstore marabou is
cheap, but the dyes are not colorfast in most cases.
 Cabellas** sells
'spey' marabou, and I have some un-sourced packages
of marabou with dense
marabou along the shafts and fanlike feathers at the
tips.

Rope-dubbing marabou for beautiful fuzzy bodies that
are tapered and
segmented is a favorite of mine.  The emerger
semi-dry parachute fly is a
perfect application, so is a damselfly nymph.
Mixing colors gives amazing
buggy effects- like blending dubbings.  The
different types of marabou give
different shape bodies and fuzziness.

I'll tie some marabou-dubbed tails and email you
some photos- you'll see
what I mean.

DonO
