FFGene CDC Premium - Natural 1 gram
FFGene CDC Premium - Natural 1 gram contains small, soft natural CDC feathers for precise fly tying. The 1 g pack contains approximately 300–400 feathers, with most measuring 2.5–3.5 cm. CDC comes from the area around a duck’s preen gland. Its fine fibres form a light, soft surface that traps air and gives tied components a natural profile.
Construction and use
The small size and soft texture make these feathers especially useful for mayfly and caddis wings. They also form dry-fly wings, delicate collars, legs and emerger details. Wrap an individual feather around the body, or place it in a split-thread loop for a softer, fuller element. The natural colour suits restrained patterns, while feather length and barb density guide selection. For small flies, use a controlled amount of material so the wings remain neat and the body keeps its proportions.
