Troutline Premium CDC Oiler Puffs possess distinct qualities that make them highly valued in the world of fly tying. Unlike traditional CDC feathers, these oiler puffs feature barbs without a stem, providing a superior level of softness. They are particularly sought after for creating very small flies, serving as antennae for chironomid imitations or as exquisite, fine wings for midge patterns.
It's important to note that the structure of the barbules in Troutline Premium CDC Oiler Puffs differs from that of normal CDC feathers, resulting in slightly reduced buoyancy. We recommend only natural greased feathers because the dye process will destroy the barb structure.
