Buying a high-quality cape for tens or even hundreds of euros takes some experience and confidence.

Feather quality influences the proportions of the fly, its silhouette, movement in the water and how easily the material can be controlled while tying. Stiffer fibres can maintain a defined shape, while softer and finer sections create natural movement in the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you have mainly tied with inexpensive capes or basic feathers, this pack is a very good way to experience the difference in material quality without making a large initial investment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrom streamers to delicate details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manufacturer positions the Variety Pack for a broad range of applications including \u003cstrong\u003estreamers, poppers, pike patterns, bass flies, salmon, steelhead and saltwater flies\u003c\/strong\u003e. The diversity of the pack also opens up many other possibilities at the tying bench.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLonger and firmer feathers are useful for wings, tails and other prominent parts of streamers, while softer sections can be used wherever more natural movement is required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEven the soft base of the feather has value\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDo not automatically discard the fine downy or webby section near the base of some feathers. It can be extremely soft and lively in the water. Its behaviour can resemble fine marabou and it works particularly well on \u003cstrong\u003esmall stillwater lures\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the fly pauses and then starts moving again, this soft material can create a very natural pulsating action. On stillwaters, that small detail can make a noticeable difference in the way the whole fly behaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eEvery pack is a little surprise\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Fly Tier’s Variety Pack does not contain one fixed combination of colours.\u003c\/strong\u003e The contents may vary from pack to pack and can include natural shades, grizzly patterns and brightly dyed feathers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is also part of the appeal.
