Fly Tying Supplement - Peacock Herl

This video has more detailed information concerning processing and working with Peacock Herl than what is normally included in some of the fly tying videos. Peacock herl is a very popular fly tying material and is used in many different patterns as well as styles of flies. I recently did a fly tying video on the Barrington (https://rumble.com/v20wysi-tying-the-barrington-dressed-irons.html?mref=6zof&mrefc=3) and talked about using peacock herl and I have another coming out in a week on the Grackle which also used peacock herl but in a different way. Hopefully this video will answer a few questions many tiers have about using this very versatile material and will help you enjoy your time at the vise a little more. - Enjoy

Additional note: in the process of doing this video I decided to do a Part II
Peacock herl video. I have a bunch (about 40ish) Peacock tail feathers that
need processing. While editing this footage I came up with a couple of ideas
to process these tail feathers a little more efficiently. That is what the
Part II video will focus on. I should be getting that out after the 1st of 2023.
