Davie, Search Warren Duncan on YouTube. If you haven't seen this, take a look. It's Warren Duncan tying a Rusty Rat while reciting a Robert Service poem. I can't post the link in this reply.

Hi Spruce7422,
I've had the spools of the stout floss for a long time and the only company that I know that supplies shops is called Veniards, so if you know a shop that stocks their materials then they should be able to get them for you. Please let me know how you get on?
All the best Davie

Davie, I enjoy your videos very much. Can you give me an address to purchase Pearsall Stout floss?

@DavieMcPhail Neat. I read that he was born in Campbellton, New Brunswick before moving to Saint John, NB. Campbellton is about 6 hours from where I live and 90 minutes from my father's hometown on the Gaspe in Quebec. There are amazing salmon rivers in Northern New Brunswick and the Gaspe, heck, every river up that way is a salmon river.
I'll have to tell the guys at fly tying what you said. One of the guys there also has one of his flies framed.

Hi kukikano9,
It certainly would be worth trying as this is a great style of fly, so tyed in whatever colour combination that you feel will work then try it..
All the best Davie
