Loose Feathers – A Variety of Fly Tying Materials

In our store, you will find a wide selection of loose feathers from various bird species, which are essential materials for tying artificial flies. We offer feathers sourced from birds like turkey, marabou, pheasant, duck, goose, peacock, silver pheasant, as well as oystercatcher and ibis. Each of these materials is available in various colors, allowing you to match your fly to fishing conditions and fish preferences.

Types of Feathers and Their Uses

• Turkey Feathers (Turkey Biots, Quills) – thin, strong feathers ideal for constructing dry fly bodies and nymphs. They are often used to create ribbing and body segments, ensuring durability and an aesthetic look for the lure.
• Marabou Feathers – exceptionally soft and fluffy feathers, perfect for creating streamers and wet flies. Marabou feathers give lures natural, flowing movement in the water, making them more attractive to predatory fish. With various lengths (from 7 cm to 15 cm), they can be adapted to different types of lures.
• Pheasant Feathers (Golden Pheasant, Silver Pheasant) – these feathers are characterized by unique, natural luster and colors. They are ideal for creating tails, wings, and bodies in more decorative flies. Golden and silver pheasant feathers add elegance and distinctiveness to lures, and their structure allows for realistic imitation of insects.
• Peacock Feathers (Peacock Quills, Body Feathers) – peacock feathers, with their distinctive metallic sheen, are often used for constructing dry fly bodies, wet flies, and streamers. They excellently mimic insect bodies thanks to their natural shiny shades of green and brown, which attract fish.
• Duck Feathers (Mallard Flank) – lightweight feathers from the flanks of ducks, ideal for use in wet flies, imitating wings and body segments of insects. Duck feathers are often used in tying classic fly patterns, such as March Brown or Blue Winged Olive.
• Goose Feathers (Goose Biots) – mainly used for creating tails, wings, and bodies. These feathers are strong and flexible, and their thin structure allows for precise replication of insect segmentation. Available in various colors, they are a versatile material for different types of flies.
• Oystercatcher and Ibis Feathers (Substitute Feathers) – these rare feathers are mainly used as substitutes for more exclusive bird species, such as ibis. They are suitable for creating decorative elements in flies, adding elegance and distinction to lures.

Uses of Loose Feathers

The loose feathers offered in our store can be used in many fly-tying techniques, such as:

• Wings and tails in dry and wet flies, adding lightness and a natural appearance to the lures.
• Fly bodies by using thin biot or segmented feathers, allowing for realistic imitation of insects.
• Ribbing and body segmentation where feathers like turkey or goose biots are ideal for creating fine details.
• Streamers – marabou or peacock feathers are excellent for constructing streamers, which move naturally in the water, effectively attracting predatory fish.
