Over Sized Feathers

Post by DUBBN » Wed May 22, 2024 10:34 am

Size 14 Yellow softhackles. They are tied with over sized Mallard dyed Wood Duck flanks.
They do not always turn out pretty, but I do enjoy tying and fishing them.

I see nothing wrong with them, pretty or not.

8-) ;) I usually have a display at Expos showing 3 methods of using oversized feathers to tie soft hackles. I think I have a lifetime supply of IWD from one big bag I bought years ago. :)
