Spirit River UV2 Select CDC

Spirit River UV2 Select CDC consists of selected CDC feathers dyed with UV2 technology. It combines the delicate structure of CDC with a colour range intended for dry flies, emergers, and other patterns that call for a visible feather element with a light profile.

Construction and use

CDC refers to feathers from the preen-gland area of a duck. Their delicate fibres trap air, making them suitable for dry-fly and emerger wings, collars, legs, and loops made in split thread. UV2 describes the dyeing technology and the resulting colour character of the material. Match the available shades with the useful length and density of the feather section, then select the material for the hook size and planned pattern.
