The wing feathers of the Mallard have always been a very popular natural tying material. They are used, for example, for the production of wings, whereby very beautiful wing sheaths can be tied with them. And we can also recommend this material from Wapsi as a quill for binding filigree bodies. The feathers have a great shine and offer several colours so that you always find the right one for your creation. In short: A very universal, classic material for your tying desk.
Dry flies, wet flies, nymphs: With these feathers you have a lot of choices.
