Kirk Deeter over at Field & Stream has a pretty cool little contest going on right now. It’s focused on domestic pet hair, and how you use it in your fly-tying. While I’ve used my husky’s hair for a few years, I’m glad to know that others are catching on how to use items (or animals) around the house to help them with tying flies that actually catch fish. My husky’s hair has been used from everything to PMDs to Streamers, and in this case, a midge emerger.

Go over and enter your idea or picture for a chance to win a copy of his book, The Little Red Book of Fly Fishing.

Here’s Kirk’s animal of choice.
