Troutline CDC Tier's Pack -Wild European Mallard

If you are seeking highly dense and super soft and fluffy CDC (Cul de Canard), this product may not meet your requirements. CDC sourced from wild ducks is characterized by uniformity, with barbs of equal density, and it lacks the pronounced fluffiness. This distinction arises from the natural behavior of wild ducks, which frequently preen and maintain their feathers due to their constant exposure to water. In contrast, the very dense and fluffy CDC is typically associated with domestic ducks raised on farms, often without access to water or regular swimming activities.

The CDC Tier's Pack in natural grey color from Wild Mallard ducks provides the finest cdc feathers you can find. Don't think that you will have large feathers with long stems and very fluffy. No, not at all! The wild mallard ducks provide delicate CDC feathers with super thin and elastic stems ( similar with Khaki Cambell  cdc feathers). The barbs are almost transparent and super fine!

These feathers are colored in superb grey from very light to dark grey, almost black. Some brown tint can appear which makes these feathers really nice.

• thin delicate feathers with elastic stems and barbs
• the color starts from light grey to dark grey in a superb gradient
• 0.5gram /bag
• all sizes up to 2,5cm

We consider the Wild Mallard CDC the best material for tying dun flies, micro emergers and delicate CDC F Flyes. You cannot beat them when it comes about making flies on size #14 to #24 hooks.
