Davie- Can you send me the name of the feathers that you used with? this fly? And where I may be able to purchase them? alpacasofmontana@hotmail.com. Thanks- James
hi davie,
excellent series of tying videos. supreme artistry and skill shown. if possible can you tie a few more sea-trout flies please….thanks? again for the videos.
Gave this one a go this evening. I thought it was fairly straight forward, but it just doesn’t quite? look like yours,,, oh well just 15 or 20 more years of tying……..
Ok after a sec watch I see the fancy hand? work there it looks like you are just raping
the floss but you are twisting the floss as you are raping that fast.
I’ve never really counted how many flies you can get from a cape but It’s all down to the quality of the feathers . But If I had to guess I would expect about 100 plus ..
Hi James(alpacasofmontana1),
Vulturine Guineafowl is the name of the bird that the feathers come from, I’ll send you a link to a website that sells them….All the best? Davie

thanks davy already checked GAC flytying bible so will see you tomorrow…great fly and? will give it a run out
Hi Davie
Great looking fly. I like the feathers in that one the way the blue fades in at the tips of the feather.
And the Jungle Cock looks really nice on? that one.
How many flies do you get out of a Jungle Cock cape??
Thanks Chance
Did I? hear you right….. are they vulture feathers you have used??
After looking up the price for Jungle cock capes, I think its time? to kick the dog out and start raising birds!
Another well done fly. Thanks Davie.
