I see that the fly in January's T&S,The Posh Tosh is tied with fluro yellow Artic fox .Is there any fluro artic fox out there to be had ,if so I would have thought that Foxy Tails would have had this one sowen up maybe they ment translucent rather than fluroescent what do others think??

Hi Neptune
I'm sure if you give sue at foxytails a ring she will be able to sort something out for you. I got a nice flou yellow shadow fox tail to tie the Posh Tosh from her about 4 years ago.

Firstly Sanny...yes you did get a good fluro tail from me a couple of years ago....it was from a small batch I managed to get hold of...
sadly the company that dyed that tail is no longer dyeing.
I have searched the world over for a quality supplier of Fluro Dyes....it is an area full of problems for me...
Firstly i need someone who is capable of supplying a sustainable quality supply in the 100's a time.....no good for me have one or 2 good tails and then nothing !!
Secondly....I actually know the fox fur market pretty well and question if there is indeed a true fluorescent on the market ......sadly many vendors state fluorescent...but an ultraviolet light soon will tell the truth !!
Thirdly: I think when speaking to customers there is a lot of confusion do you really mean fluorescent or translucent ??? On many occaisions the response has been whats the difference ????
Arctic Marble fox fur and White Raccoon Dog dyed , does have translucent qualities. Fluorescent is only achieved via dyes and to date samples I have received are not of a qulaity I would lend Foxy-Tails name to..
In summary I live in hope one day we will find that Holy Grail some perfect Fluorescent Arctic Marble Fox in yellow, red and orange....!!!!
well Sue what can I say ?? If it's worth doing its worth doing well.and there is no way you would put your Logo to Inferior quality products,If anybody knows the market its yourself I hope that like you said one day there will be fluro tails on the market.So where did these Phantom Tails appear from ???? that everybody claims to be using??

I also like to know what about we are talking but looks that is some problem with delivery of me January issue of T&S,
Posh Tosh is one of recommended patterns for Dee than definitely I like to tie same.
If fluro yellow is necessary we have put same stress for our favorite supplier.
Sue one tail for me PLEASE.
