FLY TYING FEATHERS
Use the many great properties of the various natural feathers for your fly tying
The COCK CAPE PRO TYER from hotfly are so-called genetic hackles from special breeding lines, of American origin and in grade 1 quality. Every cape has a large number of evenly grown and rather long feathers of different sizes, which are rather slender in shape. The feathers have only a few fluffy fibres, are very flexible and can be wrapped wonderfully around the hook shank without breaking. The fibres of the feathers are very dense, rather stiff and are suitable for many applications and techniques in fly tying, also for parachutes and palmer. The COCK CAPES PRO TYER are gently dyed in Italy according to hotfly's specifications, giving them a lightfast, very natural colouring without sacrificing the flexibility and durability of the feathers. We offer these cock capes in the most popular colours, which you can use to tie a variety of different fly patterns. The black grizzly colouring looks very natural in combination with the more discreet basic colours, whereas very beautiful contrasts are created with the more striking colours. For the "white natural uv" colour variant, the natural colouring has been retained and the feathers have been given UV-active properties.

Hotfly's CDC FEATHERS SUPER SELECTED are the result of a careful selection in which you will find only the highest quality material. The medium/large length of these feathers makes them particularly suitable for split thread, being easier to handle with the hare clips. The flotation properties of CDC are extraordinary and therefore it is particularly suitable to tie dry flies, but its versatility makes it an excellent fly tying material also for wet flies and nymphs. CDC is used to realize tails, bodies, legs and wings.
Hotfly's CDC FEATHERS EVO SELECTED are selected to offer you only the best for the fly tying. These CDC feathers are thick enough and long sufficient to allow you to work in the best possible way with the hare clips. The unique floating properties of CDC make it ideal to tie dry flies, but thanks to its versatility you can also use it to tie wet flies and nymphs. With the cul de canard you can realize imitations of tails, bodies, legs and wings.

Thanks to the extraordinary natural properties of CDC (cul de canard) you can make extremely floating dry flies but also wet flies and nymphs, imitating tails, bodies, legs and wings.
These PARTRIDGE ENGLISH FEATHERS from hotfly are selected feathers from the back area of partridges and therefore naturally rather brown in colour. With their fine, soft hackle fibres that move very lively in the water, they are ideal for imitating legs, tails and wings on dry flies, nymphs and wet flies. You will find the PARTRIDGE ENGLISH FEATHERS packed in bags of 3 grams and with their wide range of applications they really should not be missing on any tying table.
Since the early days of fly fishing, imitations have been made entirely from natural fly tying materials. Despite the evolution and technology have brought to the market synthetic products of excellent quality, we believe that feathers and hairs are still irreplaceable and essential for tying your artificial flies.
Each feather is shaped differently according to its natural characteristics and will help you imitate wings, tails and bodies of insects that feed on trout. The advantage of using natural fly tying materials is that they will give a very realistic and addictive look to your imitations.
Thanks to our contacts with hunters from Germany and Austria we are able to offer you high quality fly tying materials at a competitive price.
