yea is was originally thinking of using them for classic wet flies to get a bit more practice with them.

g3, i had started a post about that same topic about a month ago actually, but these feathers are from a bird that was bought from a pet store here in virginia, so all the feathers are perfectly legal.

thanks for all the advice. look forward to hearing more ideas.
