Does anybody know of a source where I can get some white strands of hair for making Mackeral Lures.
I have a lead head and I need some hair to attach. I have seen some made and want to try myself but can't get the strands.

I have seen the pro guys go into Gavin Platz at Tie N Fly at Kawana to get some specific hair for them. I am not sure how the technique works but some of the old school Mackerel Pros still use a hand lining technique with a specific tie . Phone Gav as he would know a bit better being a former Pro Mack fisho himself
