You could use them for dry flies. You could hold on to them until you get more and sell them to mepps. I think they pay about .50 cent each for them.

If I am right, the makers of Mepps spinners will buy squirrel tails. Check out the back of a Mepps package for the address, or you can probably find them on the web. The price is not high, but if you have a lot of them it could add up. If you only have a couple, the best thing to do is tie them to the antenna on l your car.

Last I saw, Mepps only buys them if you have 100 minimum
