California Quail Skin: Premium Fly Tying Feathers

Beautiful California Quail skin featuring natural grey, brown, and barred feathers prized by fly tiers for soft hackles, nymph collars, and subtle mottled winging on traditional patterns.

The feathers from California quail are wonderfully versatile. The soft, webby fibers work exceptionally well for wet flies and soft hackles, while the smaller feathers are perfect for nymph legs, collars, and delicate winging on trout flies.

These skins offer a wide range of feather sizes, making them useful for tying everything from small trout patterns to larger traditional wet flies.

Great for tying:

• Soft hackle patterns

• Wet flies

• Nymph collars and legs

• Small streamer accents

• Traditional and classic patterns

Each skin displays the natural subtle barring and earthy coloration that makes quail such a useful and attractive material in the fly tier’s collection.

A versatile and classic feather source that belongs in every fly tying bench.
