Robert sent a sample of the Texas Toast chenille to me in the last jig swap and this chenille is awesome! You have many different color combos you could tie with this chenille. Here is the first combo I came up with using the Texas Toast.

Very nice tie. Nice blending in the tail. What dark material is that in the tail? It doesn't look like it's part of the hackle and looks really thin.

Thanks guys.
Jim the dark color is chart/squirrel tail. With the squirrel tail it blended in just right with the yellow hackle.:)
It's hard to tell in the pic but the flash is gold.

Really nice Stump!!!!!!!!! That one is on my to get list which still has a few items. Plate you just have to practice with the powder and mixing. Cadman's sig line is so so true "Practice, Practice, Practice and when you think you have it Practice some more!!"

Trust me I have a bag of rejects that I scrape the paint off every now and then, and re-use!!!

Thanks everyone for the comments.
The head is just yellow paint but the Sally shine picks up the colors in the chenille :)
Rad I may be interested in some of the chenille if the deal goes through, keep me in mind.
