Perfect Quill

I'd prefer the real thing but these do just fine for quill bodies

Looks great for perdigon flies, more flexible than biots and just change thread to change color. I would recommend this over the 3mm perfect quills. I bought the small and their about right for 16 and 18 size perdigon but I still would rather use goose or turkey biots over these.

As the product descriptions says, these quills are perfect for making really nice bodies on many different fly patterns... This product does have a sticky back and will stick to the underbody materials, which is nice because that eliminates the use of superglue or another adhesive on the underbody to keep the quill from slipping on the hook. It can also be cut to varying lengths to cover all hook and fly body sizes as necessary. Because it's a thin, clear synthetic material, a simple thread color switch will change the under body color to match any hatch. Personally, I will add a strand of clear UV flashabou to wrap over the top of the quill body and then coat the entire body with a thin coat of UV resin to make these synthetic quill bodies near "bullet proof" or in this instance, fish tooth proof. Wonderful product for those that struggle with natural quills!
