For peacock herl I have had good service with excellent quality with this company.
I believe the owner used to be a commercial flytier so if you call or send an email with your order he can hand pick exactly what you need.

www.Feathersmc.com will have exactly what you need. by the looks of it youre probably thinking of getting into classic salmon flies. feathersmc is a site basically purely dedicated to that so they will have everything you need.
Thanks guys very much. I will be checking these places out. I have heard of one, and already looked at them. I wasn’t sure how good they were, but wanted opinions. I hate buying feathers and they aren’t up to snuff if you know what I mean. So I like to get recommendations. I will be checking this out. I need these feathers for streamers. I am a streamer nut…lol…

They’ve also got great swords and different dyed herls.
Good golden pheasant heads too.
Thanks, I have bought some hooks and a few things from them in the past. I will see what they have too. I have been busy making flies for Casting For Recovery, and I haven’t placed an order for the feathers yet. I want them for streamers. ![]()
