Not a whole lot around here hawgboy22, you might try Glen Dayton in Trenton not sure what he may have left in stock if anything. Glen was talking about giving it up about a year ago.
I myself deal a lot with Togens out of BC.
What are you looking for? Maybe I can help?

I hAve tried as well as I decided to keep myself busy this winter. I have had two orders from Togens but it’s slim pickings everywhere for certain colours in different materials! I cleaned out both Sail and Cabellas but they had next to nothing and told me maybe by spring they would have more! Medium chenilles in jig tieing colours especially anything in pink or black is impossible everywhere. Black and white marabou is tough to find.I will try that place as well thanks!

Just visited this sight and looks like the same as the rest! Not sure if sight is down or even working. One item for sale and it’s a rod? Not sure if it’s me or not but there is no fly tieing materials at all for sale on the sight?

Went to the https://www.heritageflyfishing.ca I think the site is in development or there as just a pointer. If you are looking for just a few basics this site may be able to fill you needs. http://luremaking.com

For on line shopping or if you are on a road trip, there is Sail Out doors (Ottawa and Oshawa) or there is BassPro Shop (= cabelas.ca) in Vaughn.

Been there and there and as I said they have zero or I should say zero at Cabellas and light at Sail. I think it is just the reality we live in right now. Hopefully things get better soon but be careful on Amazon as prices are all over the place

Before you road trip I would call the places that you may want to visit to check on stock, whether it be Drift O.F. in Toronto or Grand River O.F. in Fergus just to name a few. Much more west of here, First Cast, Grindstone. Reel Flies I believe is web only. https://www.reelflies.ca/

Plan B for bucktail is to get a tail from a deer hunter friend. That gives you white and brown bucktail. There are recipes for dyeing with food coloring and vinegar although I have never tried it and I don't know how dark you can make it. A word of caution: if you do use materials "from the wild" take steps to kill and mites and other bugs. Recipes include freeze/thaw cycles to kill the mites or a brief exposure to microwaves. I have heard that a mite infestation can really damage the feathers etc. in your fly tying box.

Stopped at the store it was closed but it does exist. The store was too dark to see stock I am thinking of returning tomorrow. Hours on the sign I believe were 12-4

Stopped in at the store today and met the owner. Nice clean and bright atmosphere, owner not new to flyfishing as we conversed on many subjects and many people that we know in common. The store hrs are short now because they are waiting on more stock and a Grand Opening for April.
