Deer fur is one of the most used materials for tying artificial flies. Necessarily, each binder should have a sufficient set of different types of fur, because they can be hollow and dense, thin and thick, different colors - both naturally different and artificially dyed. Deer fur is used for almost all elements of a fly - tails, bodies, wings, legs, heads ... It is present both in the smallest and fine dry flies and in large trout streamers. Examples include the wings of caddis (Elk Hair Caddis, Roman Moser's Balloon Caddis, Goddart & Henry Caddis), the bodies of some dry flies such as Irresistible Adams, the extended body of Ephemera Danica, the wings of Compara-Dun. It is used as dubbing, for example, with nymphs and gammarus, bodies of grasshoppers, beetles and ants, and it is very effective when their legs are made of broken fur. They make streamers like the classic Muddler Minnow, bodies of all kinds of mice, as well as the deerskin mouse and microporous Morris Mouse.
