Default Stripped Quills

Hi Lads and Lassies

Looking for the above to top up my buzzer box , i have peacock herl , but to be honest its a pain in the @rse stripping them all the time , too time consuming . If anybody knows of a place that does them already bagged , it would save a fair old bit of time.

Many thanks

Stevie j

i can remember someone mention about getting them pre-stripped, not sure where tho. i use my thumb to strip them as i find a rubber breaks it too easily

You can get them pre stripped from a manufacture called Spirit River, you used to be able to buy them from Eyebrook tackle.
