Peacock Eyes Hends

A timeless classic that belongs in every fly tier’s kit. Natural Peacock Eyes is one of the most versatile materials in fly tying, and when used correctly it can turn even a simple pattern into a highly effective fly.

If you use the feather in its original state, it’s perfect for creating interesting bodies, especially on beetle-style patterns, thanks to its natural texture and distinctive, lively sheen.

Once you remove the fine fibres from the quill, the material becomes even more useful: you get an excellent body material for patterns such as quill bodies, chironomids, nymphs and other slim, detailed flies where realism matters.

Why Peacock Eyes:

• natural peacock eye feather with unique texture

• two uses in one: beetle bodies and slim patterns after stripping

• great for quills, chironomids and nymphs

• natural sheen and depth fish respond to
