Premo Turkey Flats

Description

Premo Turkey Flats from Hareline derive from white turkey breasts. The material is dyed in several colors, yielding feathers suited to parachute-style flies. This product provides a reliable, flexible winging material for many fly patterns and suits use in diverse environments.

Fly tiers may substitute white calf-tail wings on flies such as the Royal Wulff and use them as winging material. The Flats tie in flatter than calf when forming parachutes, providing an easy alternative to adjusting 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 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
