Veniard Bronze Mallard Duck Shoulder feathers come in selected packs in which you will find perfectly couples matched set of feathers. When placed back-to-back with each other, these feathers are straight and hold their position.

Historically Bronze Mallard feathers have been used for “Roofs” on Classic Atlantic Salmon flies, but are commonly used for steelhead flies, wet flies, nymph flies and streamers. The barbs should marry all the way to the tips and in good condition. When constructing bronze mallard feather wings on a Steelhead Spey Fly you need to cut slips from opposite positions on a matched set of feathers. To the salmon dresser, the large bronze colored shoulder feathers are indispensable to the classic Spey fly tier for wings on flies such as the Lady Caroline and similarly winged flies.

Also, what would a classic salmon fly be without a roof of bronze mallard? Veniard Bronze Mallard Duck Shoulders packs contains 10 feathers in a Mdeium size, approximately 12cm in length.
