Dont trust ebay? Blasphemy!!

I buy lots of stuff from some great tackle merchants there. I myself sell a lot of stuff on ebay. It isn't any sort of problem as one might imagine.

I have been asking friends and no one has ever seen a porcupine here in TX.  Do you think a small armadillo shell would float? I can get those.

Sharon, have you ever used a porcupine quill before? Have you ever seen one, If not I'll send you one out of my personal stash with instructions .  LOFR
Don't want you to have to do that. Did you catch your own porcupine, or if not where did you get them? If you got good ones from somewhere, I could send for the same quills.
I bought up a quanity when a fishing store went out of business, then last year a friend of mine  and I bought 50 blank quills off e-bay and we make them up ourselves.
don't know about the armadillo shell as a float, but could make a good chili bowl.
You make armadillo chili???
I actually  have a Texas Armadillo Chili Bowl , I think Sharon uses them too but just wont admit it, in the photo notice how the inside is Longhorn orange , thats why Texas fan like it.
Do you just drink it out of the opening?
   Thats a notch for your spoon.
And do you use an armadillo paw for the spoon? Did you know they make handbags here in TX from armadillos? I am going to make a bluegill evening handbag once I get a 12" er with nice colors. (have to keep this conversation fishy)
A friend of mine from Tulsa made this Armadillo dish for me , but nowthat you said you were going to make a purse I wonder if you could use the skin of the Bluegill after they have been filleted, after the skin dries out ,their like leather.
