Spirit River UV2 Ostrich Plume
Spirit River UV2 Ostrich Plume consists of loose ostrich feathers dyed with UV2 technology. Their long, delicate, soft fibres create mobile accents and light volume. The material suits legs, small wings, tails, ribbing and other soft fly details. Use an individual fibre or a selected section of feather according to the density and shape required. UV2 technology increases colour visibility in the ultraviolet range.
Construction and use
Before tying, select a feather section with a fibre width suited to the pattern. Gently align the fibres and secure them under moderate thread tension to preserve their softness and movement. An individual fibre creates a subtle detail, while a wrapped feather section produces a denser, more pronounced element. Adjust the amount of material to the volume required by the fly.
