A couple of years ago I really got into tying Pardigon nymphs, the pebble. Most of these patterns require a CDL, or Coq-de-Leon tails. I did a little research and found that Whiting genetically engineers birds just for tail material. Whiting sells this material in Tailing Packs. There normally two shoulder patches in each pack and sell for about $15.00. There are color options to pick from. I picked a medium pardo. I love this material it holds up well.
