It has a black nylon type core. The whole yarn melts when lit with a match.
It down not come off the core when I pinch or pull it.

RE: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Dollar store chenille

The chenille test :

Is the core a synthetic or natural material?
Is the chenille braided into the core or does it slip out easily?
If you burn/singe the edges, does it fall apart or taper?

Stopped into the dollar shop at Barcroft Plaza ( falls church, near Holmes
run). I found some really nice chenille and eyelash yarn. Both were $1.99

The pics don't do justice to how bright the chenille is. Go get some!

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: New Mexico Fly Fishing

Thanks for the recommendations! I don't quite have the time I'd like to have--I get in late Thursday, am camping Thursday night and fishing up until Friday early afternoon when I have to head to Santa Fe for the rehearsal dinner. Then I have from Sunday morning until a late afternoon flight on Monday to do some more fishing/hiking.

I think I'm going to do the Pecos for the first leg, because it will only take me 2 hours from the airport and is an hour from Santa Fe (my flight gets in at 9pm, hoping to have my tent up on site by 11:30). Four hours might be a bit much, but if I can squeeze it maybe I'll head to the San Juan on Sunday morning. I do really like the idea of getting two rivers in.

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: New Mexico Fly Fishing

Absolutely agree with other posts...have fished the Pecos and it is nice, but the San Juan is definitely worth the drive! If you can/want to afford a guide, I highly recommend John Tavvener (http://www.sandstoneanglers.com/)...a really good guide for that river.

Hi all, I'm new to the group, and back from a long fly fishing hiatus. Dan suggested I give the group a shoutout to see if anyone had any experience fishing in New Mexico.
My buddy is getting married in Santa Fe this weekend, and I'm planning to get away for a few days to get some fishing in. I spoke to a park service ranger, who recommended checking out either Cowles on the Pecos River (in Santa Fe National Forest) or Cow Creek. Has anyone fished anywhere in this area? Any recommendations about, well, anything?
If I manage to land a fish this trip, it will be my first on a fly in about a decade, so I'm quite excited. Hopefully when I get back I'll get a chance to meet more of the group for some more local fishing.
