Feathers do look nicer than hair to me. Actually, since hair always wants to twist, I think feathers is just as easy to tie too.
VERY nice ties ..... second one down should be killer this time of year!

I guess I've not noticed the twist in the hair because it fans out at the hook. I have run across feathers turning any which way if you don't have a death grip on them when wrapping the thread.
Thanks for the positive feedback on them!

WMB. If you need some chicken feathers let me know I'll bring them by. I can get you brown black or white.

If I can give my chickens a little salmonella and pluck from the rectal area. I might get close to chartreuse. Will that work for you. Lol

Depends on what I'm fishing for, but I mostly use feathers. I do use hair if I'm fishing for hard fighting or fish with teeth. Hair holds up better... IMO
