Great looking.....how is the feather look in water?

 

[Fatman]

Thanks Pepop and plate

I'm hoping they move just like when they're on a fly. For some reason HP barbules separate and move all over while in the water. It is one feather used for soft hackle flies. I'm on the last skin I have that I traded for - I'll post a pic of it tonight, really nice feathers!!!!!!

Thanks Stump - had to use 2 on each side to get them looking good on a #2 hook, these size feathers are good for smaller jigs

 

[Fatman]

Finally got photo bucket to upload the pic of the skin, this is the skin I used on the jigs

Hey Doug, I saw this Hungarian Partridge Skin on ebay, bid now at $9.99 with 2 hr left. What would be a good price for 1 like this?

If you can get a really nice skin for less than $20 it's a good buy. If you win it I'd request that he put it on stiff cardboard for shipping so it doesn't get bent up.
