Ringneck Pheasant Skin

Description

The Ringneck Pheasant Skin has a large variety of feathers for nymphs and wets, including “church window” feathers. The “Church” feathers can be used for wings on drys and wets. The rump feathers can be used for quill bodies or wet hackles. The metallic body feathers also work great for wet hackles. Use the rump feathers on a wet fly like the Carey Special. The aftershaft feathers are useful on many patterns for gills. Jack Gartside wrote an article on the parts of a Ringneck Pheasant Skin and how they pertain to fly tying. This #1 skin does not contain the tail, head, or wing parts.
