Premo Turkey Flats

Description

Premo Turkey Flats from Hareline come from the breasts of white turkeys. The whites are dyed to a number of colors. These feathers make excellent posts for parachute styled flies. You can also use white flats as replacements for white calf tail wings on flies like the Royal Wulff. They are most commonly used as a winging material. The Flats tie in flatter than calf when making parachutes, and are an easy alternative to messing around with hackle tip wings.

Turkey Flats are a good choice for thorax style dry flies, and spent spinners as well.  A.K. Best was a strong proponent of Premo Turkey Flats for his Quilled Body Parachutes.  He also uses the stems for quill-bodies and the feather-fibers are used for “thorax-wing” dry flies. Available in bright or natural colors depending on whether you need realism or visibility. 3-4.5 inches in length. Colors: Cream, Dark Dun, Flo. Orange, Flo. Chartreuse, Light Dun, Medium Dun, Tan, White
