BadAndy Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 So I'm down in Mexico for the week, ran across some critter that looks like a warn weather raccoon. Got to thinking it has this puffy tail, but it was pretty sparce, wonder if it would be any good to tie with! (No answer on that yet from the locals)... Next thought was, is there anything here I might want to bring North that is either expensive or hard to get? Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BadAndy Posted December 13, 2016 Author Share Posted December 13, 2016 I don't think it will improve my tying much, but maybe I just won't notice! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ÜberFly Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I'm pretty sure you would have to declare this animal's fur (at the very least you should anyway)... Not sure what parasites, etc. it might bring into Canada... Probably best to buy your materials locally. Might not be worth saving a couple of $, in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangus Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Nothin like luggage full of fleas (or worse). I've Never seen hecho en Mexico on any of my tying gear. Leave that little critter where he lay. The only thing I Bring back from Mexico is a burntan and on occasion, An angry colon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadAndy Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 Ok so getting the sense not a great idea. Thanks for the input. (Will consider the tequila...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkplug Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Nothin like luggage full of fleas (or worse). I've Never seen hecho en Mexico on any of my tying gear. Leave that little critter where he lay. The only thing I Bring back from Mexico is a burntan and on occasion, An angry colon. Had to laugh, the very first vise I ever had as a kid many moons ago was "hecho en Mexico". A rather crude device by today's standards, but got the job done nonetheless. I agree with the comments re not bringing back foreign road kill or animal matter generally speaking. Train wreck at Customs, any way you look at it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
