Excellent quality CDC feathers from France. Generous 5g packs with the great majority of feathers in the 2.5 - 5cm range.

CDC feathers can be used in a variety of ways; the structure of the feather makes it float particularly well and the fine nature of the fibres makes a variety of wings or for unusual hackles and fibre bodies.

Selected feathers from this very special breed of poultry. The feathers have 3 distinctive characteristics - firstly a firmness that makes them ideal for tails (although they are effective tied in a single turn as a hackle), a gloss that makes them shine and be particularly visible and finally their distinctive marking. These feathers have fibres with a black and tan mottled appearance.

There are 10 selected feathers in each pack.

Orange Goose Biots have become accepted as the most effective way of adding wing buds to buzzers - the feather retains a bright clear colour if varnished or not, wet or dry. There are also many other uses for the various coloured feather pieces such as wing case or thorax cover in nymphs, tails where a more solid piece is required or for making segmented bodies.

Each pack contain a generous amount of the biots and come in the following colours: black, brown, magenta, olive, orange, red and yellow

Dyed turkey feathers used to be used for traditional built wing salmon flies. They have a fine herl useful for small nymph or shrimp bodies and a range of applications in both wet and dry fly making. The feathers do not have biots as found in the biot quills.

Each pack contains 2 feathers and they are available in 4 naturalistic colours.

Stripped eye quills have a dark edge that when wrapped onto a hook shank gives a most attractive banded appearance. These quills are of the highest quality and require no pretreatment before use. There are 25 quills in each pack. They make excellent bodies for buzzers, nymphs and dry flies. The range of 10 different colours gives alternatives to match most naturals.

Jeremy Lucas advises to build up a body of light coloured thread to give the desired shape and coating the body with varnish before winding the quill to give additional strength to the body. I also varnish the body after tying for the same reason. The banding is most effectively shown if the dark edge of the quill is on the side away from the hook eye.

This is the most exciting product for all types of trout flies that I have come across in many years.
