Few materials carry the legacy of Coq de Leon. Sourced from the prized roosters of the Leon region in Spain, these tail feathers have been used in fly tying for centuries — and for good reason. Their natural stiffness, iridescent speckled coloration, and exceptional durability make them the ultimate tailing material for dry flies and nymphs.

Each pack contains 12 long, stiff feathers with a unique speckled pattern that adds a level of realism no synthetic can replicate. The natural coloration perfectly imitates the mottled appearance of mayfly tails and legs, making them deadly on selective trout.

Why Coq de Leon?

• Speckled, long, and stiff — 12 feathers per pack
• Natural stiffness keeps tails perfectly splayed and upright
• Iridescent coloration mimics mayfly and stonefly legs and tails
• Extremely durable — withstands repeated casting and fish bites
• Versatile: use for tails, legs, wingcases, and soft hackle collars
• Works in freshwater and saltwater patterns

How to Use

Strip away the fluff and loose fibers, leaving the stem and well-defined fibers. Secure the stem to the hook to build tails, legs, or wingcases. For a slimmer profile, tie in a small pinch of fibers directly. Pair with Gadwall feathers for unique soft hackle combinations, or add slotted tungsten beads to get your nymphs deeper in the water column.

Available in 9 natural colorways: Light Speckled Pardo, Medium Speckled Pardo, Dark Speckled Pardo, Barred Speckled Aconchado, Black, Ginger Speckled Flor De Escoba, Dun, Brown, and Light Dun.
