The Gambel's quail fits this bill too ... http://www.flymphforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2739

Re: Quail Bloa 1530
Lovely, both of them. Very clean and crisp, both the materials and the tie.
Thanks for posting.

Re: Quail Bloa 1530
Bill, I tried to find this post. I remembered you had a quail pattern that was a beautiful substitute for Waterhen. In the hands of a pro it comes off just right. In my effort to slim down my tying materials...I am going to resist going straight on a search for a Gamgel's Quail...but probably not for long.tie2fish wrote:The Gambel's quail fits this bill too ... http://www.flymphforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=2739
For the record, I am thrilled with the California Quail in some subsequent ties. Highly recommended.
Rodger, thank you.

Thanks, Valley Quail. Never heard of that, or seen it marketed as such. Good to know though. I have seen Gambel Quail for sale, and I wanted some, but it was going for too much at the time. Every time I bid on a California Quail, I lose...lol. I guess there are no bird hunters here?

Re: Quail Bloa 1530
Well I just scored two new Pukeko skins yesterday, have a GP and one on the hoof that I have ready access to..... he lives with some neat quail as well.
