Last Update - Wednesday, July 14th, 2010
Whether your'e a fly tyer, a crafter, or just simply love feathers, well you've come to the right place. Here you'll find everything from hackle to bustard and more.
For years now I've been traveling the country doing the fly fishing show circuit. But there's only so much I can bring to a show, and more times than not, the good ones end up on the bottom of the bin and no one sees them.
It is my intent that this site will combine my facination with birds with the "age old art of fly tying". What do these bird look like? Where do they come from? And how are these beautiful feathers tied into a fly able to trick one of Gods most finicky creatures.

How to use this site
I’ll be using the "file-tab" method to organize and navigate through the site.If you're new and need sugestions about what type of feathers you might need for tying say.... spey flies, just click the "spey" tab above and there you will find some suggestions that my "crack staff of experts" has put together.
Just a note, there is alot of overlap in material uses and the lists are not an end-all by any means, rather more of a starting point!
On the other hand, if you know your birds well and know what you're looking for, simply browse through the list below. It's divided into two sections; hackle and exotics. Hate scrolling? Click one of these groups and jump to the list:.
Hackle
Rooster Hackle
Feather Lines - five distict lines of rooster hackle; A dry fly line, a saltwater line, a soft hackle rooster line, and a line directly descended from birds Harry Darby once bred. The saltwater line is a larger breed of birds that has been bred to tie stealhead and streamer patterns. And last but not least, Coq de Leon.
Comparing Hackle -What is the best dry fly hackle on the market? And more importantly, what makes it the best? Well this page compares hackle from all the different growers including Colins, Keough, Metz, Whiting, and more. Included is a price comarison to see which brand is the best value! - coming soon!

The dry fly line is impressive. The feathers are long, narrow, and symetrical with little to no tapper. The barbs are stiff and the stems flexible and strong. You'll find the hens from this line are perfect for tying soft-hackled wet flys.
Tying streamer patterns is definatly on the upswing.The feathers are wide, webby and have tapper. The stems are strong, especially on the capes and the feathers keep their shape.
For you flat wing fly fanatics you'll find every color imaginable and maybe even a couple more. These are rooster saddles that have some web in the feather to give it that softness and make it absorbant. The feathes are still narrow and long with some taper and as such, tye a great wooly bugger
Good schlappen is hard to find. I've included all the ntural colors as well as bright colors dyed on white and grizzly. Great for big saltwater flys.

These feathers are wide and webby and come in just about every bright color dyed on white or grizzly. For pattern that include natural colors, you'll find those too. Check out bleached grizzly - that a hot one! These birds are direct desendents of the Harry Darby line. The dunns are natural and the same color as the historic capes you might have seen in pictures. Over time a few colors have been bred into the line, but as you'll see, the dunn gene that Darby so strongly selected for over the years still comes through. This is the oldest "genetic" hackle. Bred in Spain starting in the 1650's, the name means "rooster of Leon" The barbs are long, speckled and stiff making for perfect tails and legging. Check out some of the historical patterns tyed with these feathers.
The quill from the Rhode Island Red rooster is called for in tying the Red Quill. The color is perfect, and the taper gives the body of the fly just the right shape!
Some of the most stunning roosters I've seen were out strutting around on friends farms. I've thought, imagine the flies I could tie with those feathers! The fibers are soft and webby for the most part and the shape of the feather is far more tappered than the saltwater line. They make great collars!
|
Hen Hackle
Feather Lines - I have four lines of hen hackle, each with it's own unique tying qualities. First, soft hackle hens come in countless natural colors and are perfect for tying soft-hackled wet flys.
Second, saltwater hens are much wider and more rounded, perfect for tying warmwater flys. Third, coq de leon hens are speckled and grouse like.
And Fourth, the brahma hen is much smaller and the perfect partridge substitute.
Hen feathers offer a wide range of colors and fiber lengths for tying wingless wet flies. The feathers are soft and webby, able to soak up water so that your fly sinks and stays under water. The speckled patterns on these feathers give the fly a truley buggy appearance. They have a wide range of colors and I've even dyed some to olives and browns.
The saddles have a mottled pattern that is a great partfidge substitute. And the nice thing is that the feathers are small. Both the capes and saddles come in a quite a few colors. The capes dyed golden brown make nice crayfish claws. |
This line of hen has a nice wide webby feather. Their size, shape, and wide assortment of colors make these perfect for tying warmwater flies such as poppers or collars on steelhead patterns Today's hen capes don't make good wings on dry flies. They are too pointed and almost dry fly like. So check these out, they have web to the edges and have nice rounded tips.
I've listed this last because I've included chick-a-bou from every line of chicken seen so far. Each has it's own unique size, shape, and color patterns. When I put some of these new lines out at shows - they litterly fly off the tables! |
Exotics List
Everyday I'm working on listing new breeds and the ones in light print I'm still working on. If you're looking for one of these, feel free to give me a call and I'll be glad to tell you what I have for sale.
Pheasants
All pheasants are native to Asia. There are 52 different breeds of these beautiful birds, 17 of which are listed as endangered.
Habitat distruction and hunting has reduced the number of these birds in the wild. The Hainan Peacock Pheasant, thought to be a subspecies of the grey, is one of these and is one of the most endangered birds in all of China. Today it is at greater risk of extinction than even the Giant Panda.
Non listed here are in such danger - but with habitat destruction and population growth, it's just a matter of time.

There are 43 different breeds of partridge, some dull in color such as the rock partridge while others such as the crimson-headed partridge is among the brightest colored of any bird. They are native to Europe, Asia, Africa, and the middle East. Not to confuse them with grouse, partidge are clean legged, having no feathers on their legs or feet. |

The family of quail is divided up into Old World, (Europe, Africa, and Asia) and New World, (the rest of the world) species. Old World species are in the pheasant family while the New World species, 32 in nine genera, are in a family of their own. They are found to inhabit a wide variety of terain ranging from the tropical rain forest of Asia and South America to the deserts of Africa and North America. However, unlike grouse, few species are able to tolerate extreem cold. Plumage ranges from dull to spectacular. |

The earliest fossil records of junglefowl were found in southeastern Europe. Saddly, I don't have any feathers from this "Giant Junglefowl" breed, we can only imagine what they might have looked like. Today there are 56 recognized lines of fancy show breeds, all genetic desendents of the red junglefowl. Domesticating this bird and selecting for all the different breeds took hundreds if not thousands of years. However, if we took all lines of fancy chickens and bred them back together, we would end up unraveling all those years and be right back with a red junglefowl. |

All 6 species of guineafowl are native to Africa. With the exception of the helmuted and vulturine, they are predominatly forest birds.

In their pure form there are only 3 species of peafowl; the blue, the green, and the congo. In captivity however, breeding enthusiast have created close to 225 color mutations that range from white to a very dark colored bird called "midnight".

The name "turkey" was given to these fabulous birds, somewhat incorrectly, by Europeans who first imported them through the country of Turkey. Mistaking them as a type of Guineafowl, they called them "Turkey fowl" which was later shorted up to just "turkey". And as with peafowl, breeders have selectivly bred them into every size, shape, and color. |

After more than 150 years, the Great Bustards is again nesting in Britain. Not since 1832 had a nest been recorded and now with birds introduced from Russia, the heaviest bird capable of flight is back. There are 26 different species of bustards. They are an Old World family that diverged from cranes some 70 million years ago. Stately in appearance, these birds find there home in the dry open country and steppes of Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia. Unfortunatly, populations of most species is in danger due to hunting and habitat loss. The heaviest recorded weight of a Great Bustardto date is 46 pounds. |

The buying, selling, trading, and bartering of native migratory waterfowl is regulated at the federal level by the Migratory Bird Treaty Act. This covers both "webbed" and "non-webbed" birds. Trade in all non-webbed species is forbidden while trade in webbed species is allowed but only feathers intended to be used for fly tying or milinary purposes. Added to this is state law. Most defer to the federal statute, however, a few states, and Wisconsin is one, are more strict, forbiding trade in feathers harvested from the wild. Hense, the feathers listed below are collected from captive bred birds and the proper 3-186 tranfer paperwork is on file and available. |

The diffeence between pigeons and doves? Only size. They all belong to the family Columbidae that includes some 300 species. Larger members are called "pigeons" and smaller ones "doves". There is considerable variation in size, crown pigeons of New Guinea being the largest, while the Dwarf fruit dove is the smallest. With the exception of the Sahara Desert, Antartica, and the Artic, these birds can be found everywhere on Earth with the greatest variety found in the Indomalay and Australasia ecozones. |

Ratites are a family of mostly flightless birds. They differ from other bird groups in that they have no keel of sternum. This is the large bone that the flight muscles are anchored to so a bird can fly. In Africa there is the Ostrich, in Australia the Emu, in New Zealand the Kiwi, in New Guinea the Cassawary, and lastly, in South America the Rhea, and Tinamou. |

Hackle for tying Freshwater Trout Flies
Here are some suggestions of feathers that are used in tying trout flies. There are countless patterns to tie and much overlap in how the materials are used. I've divided this section into dry flies, soft hackle nymphs, wets, streamers, and terrestrials.
Dry Flies
In tying dry flies the goal is to imitate as closley as possible the adult stage of the mayfly. After the hatch, they mate, lay their eggs and the spinners you see on the waters surface is the final stage in the life cycle.
|
To tie a good dry fly you'll need hackle with stiff barbs and a strong flexible stem. These capes tie everthing from an #8 to a #28 come in a wide selection of colors to immitate any fly you'll see out on the stream. Wings on a dry fly should be small webby feathers with rounded tips to give your fly a realistic silhouette on the water. Todays hen capes are too pointy and dry fly like. These feathers solve that problem. This is by far the best tailing material for tying dry flies. The barbs are long and stiff, supporting your fly on the waters surface. The speckling on each barb gives the tail a true buggy appearance.
As every fly tyer knows, there is something magical about how the light reflects off peacock herl when it's in the water. Trout find it irrisistable so it's no surprise it is found in so many fly recipies.

Harry Darby and Andy Miner bred the finest feathers for tying the quill gordon, blue quill, and blue wing olives. These catskill style patterns are every bit as effective today, and thanks to one breeder, so are the feathers.
These delicutly barred flank feathers make beautiful wings on such flies as the hendicksons and the drake. Some use dyed mallard as a sub, but as you'll see, there's nothing like the real thing.
Another style of tying in wings is to use duck quills. The picture is of a no hackle bwo. Another popular fly is the royal coachman, seen in the picture on the left, with it's stunning white quills tyed in as wings.

Soft Hackle Nymphs & Flymphs
Subsurface feeding accounts for 90% of a trouts diet. Enough said, so lets take a look at some of the feathers you will want in your arsenal!
|
Hen feathers offer a wide range of colors and fiber lengths for tying wingless wet flies. This also includes coq de leon hen and brahma hen. The feathers are soft and webby, able to soak up water so that your fly sinks and stays under water.
A well marked pheasant tail is a must have. The fibers make great bodies, leggs, and tails and their movement in the water gives the nymph a natural appearance. It's the only feather used in the pheasant tail nymph pattern.
The brown and tan mottled apearance of feathers on the back of a grouse creates a nice effect on soft hackled nymphs and make them very good feather to have in your tying arsenal.
The woodcock feather is one of the softest feathers for hackling soft-hackle collars, perfect for fishing in clear still waters. The movement is subtle and the mottled color closely resembles the naturals.
Peacock herl has an irredecent quaility that fish find irresistable. Uses include tailing or body material such as in the Zug Bug as well as wingcases like in the Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear The very small grey and dunn colored feathers on the top and underside of a mallard wing are extreemly webby and are perfect for tying PMD of BWO patterns that immitate the wings of emerging mayflies. Try teal wings for small flies. |
If you're going to tie soft hackles, a good partridge skin should be first on your list. The feathers do a remarkable job of giving the impression of an insect's leg segmentation. Feathers range in color from grey to tan to mottled brown. Even though these are rooster saddles, they are bred to be used for tying soft hackle flies. The fibers are soft and there is a lot of webbing in the feathers. They are great for tying wooly buggers! Starling is a very useful feather for tying small nymphs. Starling and purple is an easy fly to tie and very effective. Feathers range in color from dunn to beattle green with tan tips alowing for many interesting patterns.
Quail feathers are perfect for hackling small flies and are a blend of tan, brown, white, and grey with a distict mottled appearance. Bobwhites are nice but be sure and check out the other species that I've listed.
Biots can be used for wings such as on the prince nymph. Another use is a body material. When used to imitate the abdomen, the biots ridge suggests segmentation similar to the naturals.
|
Wets
Winged wet flies are my favorites. They are simple and elegant. They are fun to tie, they look good all lined up in a fly box, and best is that they catch fish. In this section I've listed some of the "must have" materials you'll need, and a picture of a fly showing how they are used.
The white wing on a "Royal Coachman" is tyed with duck quill. And as you'll see on some of the flies that follow, duck quills are dyed to just about evey color you can imagine.
The "Catskill" uses wood duck for both it's wing and tail. Just about any other duck flank such as teal, mallard, or pintail can be used in the same way, each having it's own unique size and color.
Goose shoulder marries well and is easily dyed to many colors, as seen here in the "Silver Doctor". The fibers are long enough to tie a larger wing and strong enough to hold their shape.
The "Abby" is just one of countless patterns that use the tippets from golden pheasant for tailing material. But there are many other feathers on this bird that you can use in tying wets. The red on the breast makes striking throats and tails.
The irredescent blue on the secondary wing quills make for a striking wing. The "Butcher" uses mallard, but don't be afraid to experiment with other colors found on the different breeds of ducks. "Tomah Joe" show season is just around the corner! As with every year, I will have the same wide selection, plenty to pick through, and off course, a few new offerings to grab your attention
Almost every feather on a peacock has a use in tying wet flies; swords for tailing as in the "Cassin" fly; herl for bodies; blue neck feathers for throats; and mottled wing quills for winging. Did I miss anything?
|
The "Brandreth" pictured here is a good example of how hen saddles can be used for throats and tails. The colors are bright and the thicker fibers give the fly a nice look.
Oak Turkey is used on many patterns as a winging material. It is available in light, medium, and dark shades. Here in the "Governor" the mottling is on the dark side.
"Greenwells Glory" is one of the most commonly fished flies in England. The collar on this fly is a greenwell hen cape - dark center with ginger edges. The saddles have a heavier fiber and make nice full throats.
Adding a junglecock eye to a fly seems to finish the fly and sets it off. Check out the "Telephone Box", the black of the junglecock against the white duck quill really ties the colors of the fly together.
The wing on the "Fish Hawk" here is tyed with hen pheasant wing quills. The fibers are shorter than turkey but the delicate brown and tan mottling makes for a nice effect.
The "Beauty" is an elegant fly that uses guinea wing quills for the wing and tail. Smaller body feathers, both natural and dyed, are nice for throats. Make sure to check out the color difference in some of the other breeds.
|
Streamers
Fishing streamer patterns is definatly on the upswing. I have a great selection of different feathers and color patterns so that you can tie just about any pattern you can dream up. Here are a few suggestions to get you started.
These feathers come off my saltwater line and are perfect for tying streamer patterns. They are wide, webby, stiff feathers that hold there shape. If you're looking for bright colors, check out my saltwater page.
The streamer in the picture is an old pattern and uses golden pheasant crest as a wing. There are so many uses for just about every feather on this bird, having a whole skin is a must.
Peacock herl is used in tying endless patterns. Whether it be used for tailing, body, winging, or any other use you can think of, it makes for a great fly. Take a look at the half moon feathers, they make nice cheeks.
Long wide webby well marked feathers are the hallmark of a good matuka feather. These feathers are solid web - right to the very tip. Give them a try, they are a very effective fly.
|
The grey ghost is a great example of how silver pheasant can finish off a fly. Check out the dyed colors - they make nice throats. The longer feathers on a hen cape make for nice wings on smaller streamers. And the saddles are perfect for tying in throats. Be sure to take a look at the bright colors in the saltwater hen line.
Wood duck, teal, gadwall, wigeon, to name a few make for nice throat, tails, or cheaks on streamer patterns. And be sure to check out the exotic species too! |
Terrestrials
By the time summer rolls around it's time to pull out a grasshopper or two and see if that might get the trouts attention. Beetles and ants can also prove to be some deadly patterns and here are a few feather suggestions to get you on the right track.
|
Trout love ants, and with a black cape you can tie tons of ants, black caddis, and beetles just to name a few. Soft hackle rooster saddles are also useful for tying terrestrial patterns. The fibers are not as stiff as dry fly and have more movement in the water.
The long fibers on a pheasant tail feather are perfect for imitating the legs on many terrestrials such as grasshoppers and crane flies. Tying knots for leg joints gives it a natural look.
|
The wings on a Spruce moth or fly are tyed with feather tip of a silver badger hen cape. Hen feathers come in so many colors, are soft, and can be used for tails, collars, or palmered over the body of the fly.
Teal can be used for small tails or throats on your fly. Its delicite barring also gives the impression of leg segmentation. Other species of duck work well too, so be sure to check them out.
This nice little caddis fly pattern uses mottled turkey for its wings. Grasshopper patterns are another example of how the interesting color pattern on this feather can imitate the natural.

If you'd like to place an order, the best way is to e-mail me a list. If you don't see just the exact color of something you're looking for, or you're just about out of a hard to find color, please ask. Chances are I have one and I'd be glad to email you some pictures.
Soon I hope to have a simple version of a shopping cart, but first I'd like to get most items listed on the site.I'm the only one putting orders together so if you have any special requests I'm glad to help.All orders will be shipped within 24 hours.
Thanks for visiting my site and if you have any questions please call.
