These bronze-tinged feathers come from the back of the mallard drake and are used for traditional salmon flies, dry fly wings, nymph legs, wing cases, tails. 3 lefts 3 rights in each package.
These non-webby flank feathers are perfect for overwings, tailing and soft hackle on wet flies, and even nymph cases and legs on nymphs. Plenty of flies to tie with these if you're into reproducing the classics from Mary Orvis Marbury or Ray Bergman's book plates. They're equally useful for tying classic steelhead and salmon flies.

Great "Lady's" aid!
If you want to tie Lady Caroline's properly, you'll need good quality Bronze Mallard.
This stuff fills the bill very well. Just be sure to do your 'measurement' before 'creasing' and applying it to your tie, as sizes will vary more than 'Select' packs.
