Fly Tying Plumage CA - Large Heron - The Canadian Tube Fly Co CA

The Heron we offer come from a bird within the Heron family that is very plentiful in its area of the world.

They are not listed on the Migratory Birds Conventions Act (Canada) and are legal to purchase and posses under Canadian law. This species is also NOT listed as a protected species in the United States under The Migratory Bird Treaty Act (USA).

This Heron is also not on the CITES List (Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species).

Under International law they are completely legal to import. We have sent these feathers to customers in over 25 different countries.

The ORIGINAL spey feather (other than the extinct Spey Cock). If you have tied with Heron substitutes like Rhea or Blue Eared Pheasant, you will quickly notice how much better the original is. Our natural Heron is the premium feathers that have been dyed over the natural chocolate colour. The dye jobs are strong, though they are covering a darker colour in most cases. This gives the feathers a natural looking transition where the bright dye colour is very evident at the base of the plume and the colour gets darker as you move up the feather. These are the plumes you are after if you are wrapping these as traditional spey plumes. The stems are very supple and the feather quality is fantastic!

large heron

On the top s our large heron. The overall length is between 5-7 inches. Below is our Medium heron with overall feather length of 3-5 inches.

On the left is the Natural Heron, to the right is our Burnt Heron.

Feather barbs still have the soft "fluff" which gives the feathers more body. Dyed colours go from bright at the base to darker as you move up the feather fora a much more natural look
