  staple

  So,

  you

  know,
• 6:59
  a
• 6:59
  lot
• 6:59
  of
• 6:59
  it's
• 6:59
  sourcing.
• 7:00
  That's
• 7:00
  why
• 7:00
  it
• 7:00
  takes
• 7:00
  a
• 7:01
  while
• 7:01
  that,
• 7:01
  you
• 7:01
  know
• 7:01
  me,
• 7:02
  we're
• 7:02
  not
• 7:02
  gonna
• 7:02
  let
• 7:02
  anything
• 7:03
  out
• 7:03
  that's
• 7:03
  not
• 7:03
  right.
• 7:04
  And
• 7:04
  we
• 7:05
  were
• 7:05
  able
• 7:05
  to
• 7:05
  secure
• 7:06
  some
• 7:07
  good
• 7:07
  quality
• 7:07
  feathers
• 7:08
  and
• 7:08
  all
• 7:08
  that
• 7:09
  kind
• 7:09
  of
• 7:09
  stuff
• 7:09
  and
• 7:10
  getting
• 7:11
  the
• 7:11
  samples
• 7:11
  honed
• 7:12
  in
• 7:12
  to
• 7:12
  where
• 7:13
  they're
• 7:13
  gonna
• 7:14
  do
• 7:14
  and
• 7:14
  look
• 7:14
  like
• 7:15
  I
• 7:15
  want
• 7:15
  them
• 7:15
  to
• 7:15
  look.
• 7:15
  And
• 7:16
  that's
• 7:16
  where
• 7:17
  we
• 7:17
  are
• 7:17
  now.
• 7:17
  And
• 7:18
  we
• 7:18
  got
• 7:18
  many
• 7:19
  other
• 7:19
  stuff,
• 7:19
  many
• 7:20
  other
• 7:20
  products,
• 7:21
  time
• 7:22
  stuff
• 7:22
  coming.
• 7:23
  But
• 7:24
  the
• 7:24
  Feather
• 7:24
  Changers,
• 7:25
  the
• 7:26
  cicadas,
• 7:28
  all
• 7:28
  those
• 7:28
  are
• 7:28
  going
• 7:29
  and
• 7:29
  of
• 7:29
  course,
• 7:29
  you
• 7:29
  know,
• 7:30
  the
• 7:30
  shrimp
• 7:30
  patterns
• 7:30
  and
• 7:31
  all
• 7:31
  that
• 7:31
  stuff's
• 7:31
  on
• 7:31
  its
• 7:32
  way
• 7:32
  and
• 7:33
  we
• 7:33
  just
• 7:34
  keep
• 7:34
  on
• 7:34
  rolling
• 7:34
  and
• 7:35
  keeping
• 7:36
  the
• 7:36
  train
• 7:36
  on
• 7:36
  the
• 7:36
  tracks
• 7:37
  and
• 7:38
  hang
• 7:38
  on
• 7:38
  because
• 7:39
  it's
• 7:39
  going
• 7:39
  to
• 7:39
  be
• 7:39
  a
• 7:40
  big
• 7:40
  26
• 7:40
  force.
• 7:41
  So
• 7:41
  I'm
• 7:42
  super
• 7:42
  excited
• 7:42
  about
• 7:43
  that.
• 7:43
  But
• 7:43
  the
• 7:44
  Feather
• 7:44
  Changers
• 7:44
  was
• 7:45
  a
• 7:45
  big
• 7:45
  obstacle
• 7:46
  to
• 7:46
  overcome
• 7:47
  and
• 7:47
  the
• 7:48
  fact
• 7:48
  that
• 7:48
  we
• 7:48
  have
• 7:49
  that
• 7:49
  now,
• 7:50
  I
• 7:50
  couldn't
• 7:51
  be
• 7:51
  more
• 7:51
  happy.
• 7:51
  And
• 7:52
  I
• 7:53
  know
• 7:53
  the
• 7:54
  people
• 7:54
  that
• 7:54
  love
• 7:55
  the
• 7:55
  Game
• 7:55
  Changer
• 7:56
  platform,
• 7:56
  that's,
• 7:57
  that's
• 7:57
  probably,
• 7:58
  if
• 7:58
  not
• 7:58
  their
• 7:59
  favorite,
• 7:59
  one
• 7:59
  of
• 7:59
  their
• 8:00
  favorites.
• 8:00
  So
• 8:02
  super
• 8:02
  excited
• 8:03
  to
• 8:03
  be
• 8:03
  able
• 8:03
  to
• 8:03
  offer
• 8:03
  that
• 8:03
  to
• 8:04
  dealers
• 8:04
  and,
• 8:04
  and
• 8:06
  the
• 8:06
  customers
• 8:07
  and
• 8:07
  you
• 8:08
  know,
• 8:08
  whether
• 8:08
  they
• 8:08
  get
• 8:08
  it
• 8:09
  from
• 8:09
  us
• 8:09
  or
• 8:10
  all
• 8:11
  the
• 8:11
  dealers
• 8:11
  around
• 8:11
  the
• 8:11
  country,
• 8:12
  it's.
• 8:13
  It's
• 8:14
  a
• 8:14
  big
• 8:14
  deal
• 8:14
  for
• 8:14
  me.
• 8:15
  And,
• 8:15
  you
• 8:15
  know,
• 8:16
  you
• 8:16
  know
• 8:16
  how
• 8:16
  it
• 8:16
  is,
• 8:17
  and
• 8:17
  you
• 8:17
  travel
• 8:17
  a
• 8:18
  lot
• 8:18
  and
• 8:18
  see
• 8:19
  the
• 8:19
  platform
• 8:19
  and
• 8:20
  how
• 8:20
  it's
• 8:20
  grown.
• 8:21
  And
• 8:22
  I'm
• 8:22
  sure
• 8:22
  you've
• 8:23
  seen,
• 8:23
  too,
• 8:23
  that
• 8:24
  the
• 8:24
  feathered
• 8:24
  side
• 8:25
  of
• 8:25
  it
• 8:25
  is
• 8:25
  one
• 8:26
  of
• 8:26
  the
• 8:26
  bigger
• 8:26
  sides
• 8:27
  of
• 8:27
  that
• 8:27
  platform.
• 8:28
  And
• 8:28
  for
• 8:29
  us
• 8:29
  to
• 8:29
  be
• 8:29
  able
• 8:29
  to
• 8:29
  do
• 8:29
  that
• 8:30
  now
• 8:30
  is
• 8:30
  a
• 8:30
  big
• 8:30
  deal.
• 8:31
  Yeah,
• 8:31
  absolutely.
• 8:32
  And
• 8:32
  so
• 8:32
  for
• 8:33
  folks
• 8:33
  that
• 8:33
  may
• 8:33
  not
• 8:33
  be
• 8:34
  super
• 8:34
  familiar,
• 8:35
  kind
• 8:35
  of
• 8:36
  what
• 8:36
  tool
• 8:36
  and
• 8:37
  the,
• 8:37
  I
• 8:37
  guess,
• 8:37
  better
• 8:38
  ways,
• 8:38
  like
• 8:38
  what
• 8:39
  club
• 8:39
  in
• 8:39
  the
• 8:40
  golf
• 8:40
  club
• 8:40
  bag
• 8:40
  is
• 8:41
  the
• 8:41
  feather
• 8:41
  changer
• 8:41
  for
• 8:42
  in
• 8:42
  your
• 8:42
  fly
• 8:42
  fishing
• 8:42
  game?
• 8:44
  Yeah,
• 8:44
  I
• 8:45
  mean,
• 8:45
  to
• 8:46
  be
• 8:46
  honest,
• 8:46
  it's
• 8:46
  probably
• 8:47
  one
• 8:47
  of
• 8:47
  the
• 8:47
  most
• 8:47
  versatile
• 8:48
  ones,
• 8:48
  right.
• 8:49
  Because
• 8:50
  it
• 8:50
  has,
• 8:50
  it
• 8:50
  has.
• 8:51
  It
• 8:51
  keeps
• 8:51
  a
• 8:51
  profile.
• 8:53
  It
• 8:53
  lands
• 8:54
  soft.
• 8:54
  It
• 8:55
  just
• 8:55
  has
• 8:55
  probably
• 8:56
  the
• 8:57
  best
• 8:57
  swimming
• 8:57
  action
• 8:58
  because
• 8:58
  of
• 8:58
  the
• 8:59
  whole
• 8:59
  getting
• 8:59
  into
• 9:00
  that
• 9:00
  deal.
• 9:01
  The
• 9:01
  laminar
• 9:01
  flows.
• 9:02
  Right.
• 9:02
  But
• 9:03
  the.
• 9:04
  The
• 9:04
  downfall
• 9:05
  of
• 9:05
  that,
• 9:06
  and
• 9:06
  it's
• 9:06
  not
• 9:06
  really
• 9:07
  a
• 9:07
  downfall,
• 9:07
  but
• 9:08
  the
• 9:08
  thing
• 9:08
  that
• 9:09
  always
• 9:09
  kind
• 9:09
  of
• 9:09
  held
• 9:09
  it
• 9:10
  back,
• 9:10
  is
• 9:10
  you're
• 9:11
  using
• 9:11
  natural
• 9:11
  materials
• 9:12
  and
• 9:13
  being
• 9:13
  able
• 9:14
  to
• 9:14
  get
• 9:14
  good
• 9:14
  quality
• 9:15
  natural
• 9:16
  feathers.
• 9:16
  And
• 9:17
  having
• 9:17
  the.
• 9:17
  The
• 9:18
  amount
• 9:18
  that
• 9:18
  you
• 9:18
  would
• 9:19
  need
• 9:19
  to
• 9:19
  create
• 9:19
  one
• 9:20
  of
• 9:20
  those
• 9:20
  flies
• 9:20
  was
• 9:20
  always
• 9:21
  a
• 9:21
  big
• 9:21
  obstacle.
• 9:22
  But,
• 9:23
  you
• 9:23
  know,
• 9:23
  that
• 9:23
  fly
• 9:23
  is.
• 9:24
  It's
• 9:24
  a
• 9:24
  big
• 9:24
  deal
• 9:24
  because
• 9:25
  you
• 9:25
  could
• 9:25
  make
• 9:25
  all
• 9:25
  kinds
• 9:26
  of
• 9:26
  stuff
• 9:26
  out
• 9:26
  of
• 9:26
  it,
• 9:26
  but
• 9:27
  it
• 9:27
  holds
• 9:27
  a
• 9:27
  profile,
• 9:28
  holds
• 9:28
  a
• 9:28
  silhouette.
• 9:29
  You
• 9:29
  can
• 9:29
  add
• 9:30
  flash
• 9:30
  into
• 9:30
  it,
• 9:31
  and
• 9:31
  you
• 9:31
  can
• 9:31
  make
• 9:31
  it
• 9:31
  look
• 9:31
  whatever.
• 9:32
  You
• 9:33
  can
• 9:33
  make
• 9:33
  it
• 9:33
  look
• 9:33
  like
• 9:33
  a
• 9:33
  mullet,
• 9:34
  you
• 9:34
  can
• 9:34
  make
• 9:34
  it
• 9:34
  look
• 9:34
  like
• 9:35
  a
• 9:35
  sculpin.
• 9:35
  It
• 9:35
  could
• 9:36
  be
• 9:37
  a
• 9:37
  dace,
• 9:37
  it
• 9:37
  could
• 9:37
  be
• 9:37
  whatever
• 9:38
  you
• 9:38
  want
• 9:38
  it
• 9:38
  to.
• 9:38
  To
• 9:39
  be.
• 9:40
  And
• 9:40
  it.
• 9:41
  It
• 9:41
  kind
• 9:41
  of
• 9:41
  blends
• 9:43
  tradition
• 9:43
  with
• 9:44
  new
• 9:44
  age.
• 9:44
  Right.
• 9:45
  Because
• 9:45
  it's
• 9:45
  stuff
• 9:46
  we've
• 9:46
  been
• 9:46
  using
• 9:46
  forever,
• 9:47
  but
• 9:47
  putting
• 9:48
  it
• 9:48
  into
• 9:48
  a
• 9:49
  new
• 9:49
  platform,
• 9:50
  and
• 9:51
  that's
• 9:51
  always
• 9:51
  been
• 9:52
  my
• 9:52
  favorite
• 9:53
  thing
• 9:53
  about
• 9:53
  it,
• 9:53
  because
• 9:53
  there's
• 9:54
  a
• 9:54
  lot
• 9:54
  of
• 9:54
  history
• 9:54
  behind
• 9:55
  the
• 9:55
  feather
• 9:55
  changer
• 9:56
  and
• 9:56
  the
• 9:57
  problem
• 9:57
  solving
• 9:58
  that
• 9:59
  I've
• 9:59
  talked
• 9:59
  about
• 10:00
  in
• 10:00
  years
• 10:01
  past,
• 10:01
  whether
• 10:01
  whether
• 10:02
  you
• 10:02
  have
• 10:02
  buoyancy
• 10:03
  built
• 10:03
  in.
• 10:04
  And
• 10:04
  talking
• 10:05
  to
• 10:05
  Bobby
• 10:05
  Popovics
• 10:06
  about
• 10:06
  it.
• 10:06
  You
• 10:06
  know,
• 10:07
  I
• 10:07
  came
• 10:07
  back
• 10:07
  from
• 10:07
  Arkansas
• 10:08
  many
• 10:08
  years
• 10:09
  ago
• 10:09
  on
• 10:10
  a
• 10:10
  trip
• 10:10
  down
• 10:10
  there
• 10:10
  using
• 10:11
  deer
• 10:12
  body
• 10:12
  hair
• 10:12
  for
• 10:13
  some
• 10:13
  of
• 10:13
  the
• 10:14
  game
• 10:14
  changers.
• 10:15
  And
• 10:16
  it
• 10:17
  was
• 10:17
  just
• 10:17
  too
• 10:17
  buoyant.
• 10:18
  Right.
• 10:19
  And
• 10:19
  fish
• 10:19
  were
• 10:19
  coming
• 10:20
  in.
• 10:20
  We
• 10:20
  did
• 10:20
  catch
• 10:21
  some
• 10:21
  big
• 10:21
  fish
• 10:21
  on
• 10:21
  it,
• 10:22
  but
• 10:23
  I
• 10:23
  was
• 10:23
  talking
• 10:23
  to
• 10:24
  him,
• 10:24
  if
• 10:24
  we
• 10:24
  just
• 10:24
  had
• 10:24
  something
• 10:25
  that
• 10:25
  would
• 10:25
  settle
• 10:25
  more
• 10:26
  in
• 10:26
  the
• 10:26
  water
• 10:27
  column
• 10:27
  where
• 10:27
  it
• 10:27
  wasn't
• 10:28
  so
• 10:28
  high
• 10:28
  up
• 10:29
  without
• 10:29
  adding
• 10:30
  a
• 10:30
  bunch
• 10:30
  of
• 10:30
  weight.
• 10:32
  And
• 10:32
  Bobby
• 10:32
  just
• 10:32
  said,
• 10:33
  ever
• 10:33
  thought
• 10:33
  about
• 10:33
  using
• 10:34
  feathers
• 10:34
  like
• 10:34
  a
• 10:34
  Semper
• 10:35
  Fli?
• 10:35
  And
• 10:36
  as
• 10:36
  soon
• 10:36
  as
• 10:36
  he
• 10:36
  said
• 10:36
  that,
• 10:37
  you
• 10:37
  know,
• 10:37
  Light
• 10:38
  bell
• 10:38
  goes
• 10:38
  off.
• 10:39
  It's
• 10:39
  like,
• 10:39
  give
• 10:39
  me
• 10:39
  a
• 10:39
  minute,
• 10:40
  I'm
• 10:40
  gonna
• 10:40
  tie
• 10:40
  it.
• 10:41
  I
• 10:41
  know
• 10:41
  exactly
• 10:41
  what
• 10:41
  you're
• 10:41
  talking
• 10:42
  about.
• 10:43
  Tied
• 10:43
  it,
• 10:43
  did
• 10:44
  a
• 10:44
  bath
• 10:44
  to
• 10:44
  bath
• 10:45
  tub
• 10:46
  deal,
• 10:47
  videoed
• 10:47
  it,
• 10:47
  sent
• 10:48
  it
• 10:48
  to
• 10:48
  Bobby,
• 10:48
  and,
• 10:49
  you
• 10:49
  know,
• 10:49
  kind
• 10:49
  of
• 10:49
  went
• 10:50
  from
• 10:50
  there.
• 10:50
  He.
• 10:50
  He
• 10:51
  loved
• 10:51
  it.
• 10:51
  And,
• 10:52
  you
• 10:52
  know,
• 10:52
  so
• 10:53
  that
• 10:53
  fly
• 10:53
  means
• 10:54
  a
• 10:54
  lot
• 10:54
  to
• 10:54
  me
• 10:54
  because
• 10:55
  it,
• 10:55
  it.
• 10:55
  It
• 10:55
  blends
• 10:57
  the
• 10:57
  old
• 10:57
  with
• 10:57
  the
• 10:58
  new,
• 10:58
  right?
• 10:58
  And
• 10:59
  it,
• 10:59
  It.
• 11:00
  There's
• 11:00
  a
• 11:00
  whole
• 11:00
  artistic
• 11:01
  side
• 11:01
  of
• 11:02
  blending
• 11:02
  different
• 11:02
  colored
• 11:03
  feathers
• 11:03
  and
• 11:04
  building
• 11:05
  textures
• 11:06
  and.
• 11:06
  And
• 11:07
  having
• 11:07
  them
• 11:08
  hold
• 11:08
  shape
• 11:09
  and
• 11:10
  being
• 11:10
  able
• 11:10
  to
• 11:10
  mimic
• 11:11
  or
• 11:11
  imitate
• 11:14
  different
• 11:14
  things.
• 11:15
  So
• 11:15
  for
• 11:15
  me,
• 11:15
  it
• 11:15
  kind
• 11:16
  of.
• 11:16
  It
• 11:16
  crosses
• 11:17
  over
• 11:17
  all
• 11:17
  types
• 11:18
  of
• 11:19
  all
• 11:19
  types
• 11:20
  of
• 11:20
  the
• 11:20
  game
• 11:21
  changer
• 11:21
  platform
• 11:22
  from
• 11:22
  synthetic
• 11:23
  to
• 11:23
  natural.
• 11:24
  And
• 11:24
  we
• 11:24
  blend
• 11:25
  a
• 11:25
  little
• 11:25
  bit
• 11:25
  of
• 11:25
  all
• 11:25
  of
• 11:26
  it
• 11:26
  to
• 11:26
  make
• 11:26
  it
• 11:26
  all
• 11:26

• 11:27
  Having
• 11:27
  the
• 11:27
  support
• 11:28
  that.
• 11:28
  And
• 11:29
  it
• 11:29
  just
• 11:30
  had.
• 11:30
  It
• 11:30
  just.
• 11:30
  It
• 11:31
  just
• 11:31
  has
• 11:31
  that
• 11:31
  it
• 11:32
  factor,
• 11:32
  you
• 11:32
  know,
• 11:33
  and,
• 11:33
  and
• 11:33
  that's
• 11:33
  what
• 11:33
  it.
• 11:34
  Whatever
• 11:34
  it
• 11:34
  may
• 11:34
  be,
• 11:36
  but
• 11:36
  I
• 11:37
  think
• 11:37
  it
• 11:37
  just
• 11:37
  appeals
• 11:38
  to
• 11:38
  a
• 11:38
  lot
• 11:38
  of
• 11:39
  people
• 11:39
  in
• 11:39
  the
• 11:39
  fly
• 11:40
  world
• 11:40
  because
• 11:40
  you
• 11:41
  have
• 11:41
  a
• 11:41
  lot
• 11:41
  of

• 11:41
  that
• 11:42
  really
• 11:42
  love

  the
• 11:43
  tradition
• 11:43
  of
• 11:44
  the
• 11:44
  sport
• 11:44
  and
• 11:45
  don't
• 11:45
  love

  the
• 11:45
  synthetic
• 11:46
  new
• 11:46
  age
• 11:47
  stuff,
• 11:47
  but
• 11:48
  blending
• 11:48
  all
• 11:48
  these
• 11:48
  to
• 11:49
  create
• 11:49
  something
• 11:50
  like
• 11:50
  the
• 11:51
  feather
• 11:51
  changers,
• 11:51
  and
• 11:52
  people
• 11:53
  like,
• 11:54
  you
• 11:54
  know,
• 11:54
  Schultz
• 11:54
  Outfitters
• 11:55
  in
• 11:55
  the

  Midwest
• 11:56
  have

  adapted
• 11:57
  it
• 11:57
  to

  do
• 11:57
  all

  kinds
• 11:58
  of
• 11:58
  different
• 11:58
  stuff
• 11:58
  with
• 11:58
  it.
• 11:59
  Um,
• 11:59
  it's
• 11:59
  still
• 12:00
  their
• 12:00
  staple
• 12:00
  and
• 12:01
  in
• 12:01
  their
• 12:01
  arsenal.
• 12:02
  You
• 12:02
  know,
• 12:03
  you
• 12:03
  fish
• 12:03
  with
• 12:04
  me
• 12:04
  over
• 12:04
  the
• 12:04
  years
• 12:04
  for
• 12:05
  smallmouth
• 12:06
  bass,
• 12:06
  and
• 12:07
  it's.
• 12:07
  It's
• 12:07
  just
• 12:08
  gets
• 12:08
  them.
• 12:09
  It
• 12:09
  just
• 12:09
  has
• 12:09
  all
• 12:10
  that.
• 12:10
  Whatever
• 12:11
  those
• 12:11
  triggers
• 12:12
  are
• 12:13
  that
• 12:13
  they
• 12:13
  like.
• 12:13
  I
• 12:13
  mean,
• 12:14
  it
• 12:14
  has
• 12:14
  movement
• 12:14
  without
• 12:15
  movement,
• 12:15
  holds
• 12:15
  its
• 12:16
  shape,
• 12:17
  has
• 12:17
  a
• 12:17
  realistic
• 12:18
  swimming
• 12:18
  action,
• 12:19
  probably
• 12:19
  swims
• 12:20
  easier
• 12:20
  than
• 12:20
  any
• 12:20
  game
• 12:21
  changer
• 12:21
  out
• 12:21
  there
• 12:21
  because
• 12:22
  of
• 12:22
  the.
• 12:23
  The
• 12:23
  way
• 12:23
  the
• 12:23
  fibers
• 12:24
  react
• 12:24
  to
• 12:25
  the
• 12:25
  water
• 12:25
  and
• 12:26
  divert
• 12:26
  the
• 12:26
  water.
• 12:27
  It's
• 12:27
  just
• 12:27
  so
• 12:27
  many
• 12:28
  things
• 12:28
  about
• 12:28
  natural
• 12:29
  and
• 12:29
  synthetics
• 12:30
  and
• 12:30
  blending
• 12:30
  them
• 12:30
  together
• 12:31
  that
• 12:31
  makes
• 12:32
  this
• 12:32
  whole
• 12:32
  thing
• 12:32
  work.
• 12:32
  And

  feather
• 12:33
  changer,
• 12:34
  to

  me,

• 12:36
  of
• 12:36
  my
• 12:36
  favorites.
• 12:36
  And
• 12:37
  it
• 12:38
  seems
• 12:38
  to
• 12:38
  be
• 12:38
  that
• 12:38
  way
• 12:38
  in
• 12:39
  the
• 12:39
  industry
