Jungle Cock Cape Top Grade

The versatile “Jungle Cock Cape” has been in use for Salmon flies since the nineteenth century. The most recognized feather is the cape feather or the jungle cock nail.

Used in salmon flies for just about every application such as sides, cheeks, tail veilings, underwings and body veilings, the grey jungle cock nail is the most sought after feather. However, the lower nape grey and transition feathers can be used for streamers, Steelhead and Salmon patterns.

Also use for Trout flies such as the Cheney, Imbrie and the Junglecock, for bass flies such as the Jungle Cock and the Maid Of The Mill and a lake fly named the Golden Rod. Side tails can be used again for spey patterns for hackles and wing coverts can be use for whole feather wing Salmon flies.
