bowmike 0 Report post Posted January 28, 2013 My boss was just on a Maryland duck hunting trip and gave me some redhead feather. I love the dark burgandy color on the flank feathers. Any good ties with this material? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

REALLY nicely mottled. Wish there were wood duck around here, but I'll see if I can't dye some of those feathers lemon and use them on catskill dries. Or use them as is. Their tips might not be the same, but they do seem to tie well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
