Looks great, but there are so many fibers out there these days it's hard to keep up. I'd love a video dedicated to explaining the differences between each of the various fibers and when you might chose one over the other.
I was introduced to Squimpish hair in one of Gunnar's video a couple of years ago. Cool stuff. I might have to check into using some for a golden shiner imitation I'm going to tie for my trip to Lake Okeechobee in February. Keep the good stuff coming Brian and if you want fish Lake Okeechobee in February let me know.
I'll have to keep an eye out for this stuff, also should really get back into tying but that requires me finishing up a model ship project that's been taking up my tying table.
Heck yeah, I LOVE squimpish. It is a great sub for bucktail on clousers, and it's PERFECT for tying in the round on Bob Pop' flies. All the muskie guys out there have been know'n about this stuff for years.
Squimpish is more than a material. It's an entire style. It's got a rich history. Squimpish hair is the best straight synthetic on the planet in my opinion.
Gunnar Brammer put me onto Squimpish. My reason for using Boutique Blends, I can’t blend like Gunnar. And then all the other reasons you mentioned. Oh and I have a patch of polar bear (from before my no wild animal fur crusade 🤬). It’s like Squimpish hair long and wispy and multi-coloured and like with flash 😇
I got some of this over a year ago. My local fly shop gave me a package of it for free, so i would spread the word. It actually has nearly "Human," feel to the hair. Im not sure i like it, but i dont hate it. I use a lot of Yak hair, it is a bit more coarse than squimpish, and more translucent. I think if i get into large streamers, i will try it out.
Always entertaining and informative. In “product review” videos, iis so nice to hear an in-depth description of the product AND see a few ways how it can be put to use. Will check it out for sure. Thanks.
I’ve been using Squimpish Hair on my offshore streamers for a few years now and absolutely LOVE it! While I have been impressed with all of the material I’ve purchased from them, I 100% agree that the boutique blends are my favorite by far.
Of course, my first comment was submitted before I saw you tie the first fly. At first, when you were adding all the saddle hackle feathers, I thought you were trying to mimic one of my wife's chickens! But the finished profile looks killer, and the colors in the squimpish fibers really stand out.
Squimpish hair looks like a great material for warm water species flies. Hopefully more durable than bucktail especially when targeting toothy critters
When you do these videos could you advise on weight line for some of the fly you tie. I am new to fly tieing and fly fishing so I am lost on size hook compared to line weight. Thanks

YES. I was LITERALLY searching for just that and came across this.
Thx for the vision. Have the product, now know what to do with it!!!
squimpish hair for the win! 🔥💣
That Clouser looked amazing!!!
Always enjoy the videos, love how you can make such good looking, yet simple flys
I really like Squimpish hair. Use it often for pike and musky flies.

Looks like a great fibre for saltwater flies. Need to get some and tie with it. Thanks for the video.
I’ll have to try it out. Love tying Big flies.
Love the spot light vids! Can't wait to play around with product. Ordering some now!
Hope you like it! I know I do.
Great looking stuff. Thanks for sharing Brian.
Squimpish - what a word . good stuff Brian.
I learned the name was derived by combining the words squid, shrimp and fish.
My head is spinning with ideas!
I need to try some of that stuff. Really makes nice looking flies.
Cool looking stuff, I've just about given up on craft fur because it's so blah. Nice to see a new and interesting option!
I'll have to keep an eye out for this stuff, also should really get back into tying but that requires me finishing up a model ship project that's been taking up my tying table.
I’m on line checking out to purchase some today.
Good looking material.
Thanks
Awesome tying once again! Looks like a really good material.
Got to give that Squimish material a try, always willing to ray out new stuff!
Thanks for another great video and cool material and awesome flies.

I really need to try the squimpish hair! Another great spotlight video👍
Very cool video! I’ll have to try this material out!
Always looking for long fibers. Went from craft fur, to nayat, and now I’ll have to try this.
Squimpish is more than a material. It's an entire style. It's got a rich history. Squimpish hair is the best straight synthetic on the planet in my opinion.
Awesome looking stuff! Great video as always!
Again, you never fail to impress with your fly tying! Thank you!
Cool looking stuff!!

Sounds like some cool stuff
Thanks for the video Brian
I really need to start using the squimpish I purchased.
Very cool, looks similar to yeti hair material but I will definitely need to buy some of this now.
Awesome stuff as always Brian!
great review. I must try this stuff.
Thanks for sharing!
Brian - Great product spotlight! Dave and team continue to impress!!!
Can’t wait to experiment with this.
What a cool way to use saddle feathers! Those badger feathers look legit.
Great ties
Very nice. I’ll definitely check their website.
Awesome fly! Love the videos!!!!
I want those flies!

When comparing the lengths I thought you were gonna say “Craft fur is you, and squimpish fur is the guy she told you not to worry about”😂
Great vid love the flies
Great product
That flys are sweet I never played with that stuff
That looks like really cool stuff

It looked like Captain Caveman!
@@flyfishingtheozarks 🤣
That’s amazing looking material.
It is really, really good stuff.
Thanks for showcasing, never knew that they had a boutique blend. 👍
I don’t fish a lot of streamers anymore but I like watching your videos. You do an excellent job of making some unique flies.
This stuff is so cool and versatile to tie with! Love the impromptu Squimpish wig too! 😂
Great review! Love Squimpish fibers!
Same!
That clouser sold it for me!
That's really awesome I need to get some
Great video thanks for sharing.
Great info as always!
Love this stuff ❤
Love the blended color options!
Awesome video, Brian. I love this stuff and use it all the time.
Very nice!
Thanks for the video. I think I’m gonna try to get some of the stuff
You should!
Great video!
Looking good!
Thanks!
Looks awsome 👌🤩
Love this stuff!
So good!
Very cool
Squimpish hair looks like a great material for warm water species flies. Hopefully more durable than bucktail especially when targeting toothy critters
Bucktail is pretty durable, but Squimpish Hair being synthetic makes it noticably more durable.
Cool matériel
Another great video m8!!
When you do these videos could you advise on weight line for some of the fly you tie. I am new to fly tieing and fly fishing so I am lost on size hook compared to line weight. Thanks
It's an interesting fiber.
Party on, Wayne. Party on, Brian?
Great video! So for smaller patterns, or even DIY brushes, you cut the squimpish to the preferred length and just hand taper both ends?
looks like a hair piece. Does it flap in the wind? Looks awesome...just ordered a load, thanks.
Nice
Looks decent cracking video bud
Morning. Can you give us a place to order this product?
i would like to win thay fly, great stuff!
New to the fly fishing world, what do you mean buy pre tapered?
Would you could you use this to make a finesse Game Changer?
Nope, I would use this: www.feather-craft.com/item/bc100/chocklett-s-finesse-brushes/1.html or this www.feather-craft.com/item/td154/chocklett-s-finesse-body-chenille/1.html
Lol.
Negative one. Brother its negative 25 C here.
Kind of looks like Donald Trump's hair
