Hareline CDC Super Select 1 Gram Pack
Hareline CDC Super Select 1 Gram Pack contains carefully selected CDC feathers in a 1-gram pack. The material is intended for light dry flies, emergers and other patterns where a fine, resilient feather must match the hook and required silhouette precisely.
Construction and use
CDC refers to feathers from the preen-gland area of a duck. Their fine fibres form a dense, delicate surface that traps air. These selected feathers are useful for dry-fly wings, emerger wings, collars, legs and CDC loops made in split thread. The 1-gram pack weight describes the total contents, while individual feathers can vary in size. Assess the usable feather section against the hook and pattern proportions, then select the amount required for the tie. Careful storage and handling preserve the feather profile and its light, mobile character.
