Patterns tied with Blue Grouse?

Recommended Posts

I seem to recall blue grouse being used in the tying of Spey flies. As a substitute for heron herl? But if you have a whole skin I would be interested in knowing if the wing or neck has small feathers suitable for tying North Country flies. Maybe along the leading edge of the wing?

Mayfly emerger and nymph patterns - due to the nice slate grey colors is where I'd start.
