Historically Bronze Mallard feathers have been used for "Roofs" on Classic Atlantic Salmon flies, but are commonally used for steelhead flies, wet flies, nymph flies, streamers ect...

The barbs should marry all the way to the tips and in good condition.When constructing bronze mallard feather wings on a Steelhead Spey Fly you need to cut slips from opposite positions on a matched set of feathers.

In Veniard's Mallard Duck Bronze Mallard Shoulders Selected packs you will find perfectly couples matched set of feathers. When placed back-to-back with each other, these feathers are straight and hold their position.

To the salmon dresser, the large bronze colored shoulder feathers are indispensable to the classic Spey fly tier for wings on flies such as the Lady Caroline and similarly winged flies.

Also, what would a classic salmon fly be without a roof of bronze mallard?
