Found a bag of dyed waterfowl feathers at the local craft store; kind of an orangish color on most of the feathers but some looked a bit like bronze mallard so I used that here; decent sub.

hook - Mustad 3906 #8
thread - Danville 6/0 black
tail - waterfowl flank dyed bronze(ish)
rib - oval tinsel gold
body - amber/red angora goat
hackle - hen brown
wing - waterfowl flank dyed bronze(ish)

Regards,
Scott

Nice find on those dyed feathers. They do indeed look like bronze mallard.
