Uses

Due to their webbiness and the variety of feather sizes you'll receive in each pack, Hareline's Mini Gamechanger Schlappen Feathers are quite versatile. While they were designed with tying Feather Game Changers in mind, they can do a lot more than that, with uses ranging from winding large soft hackles to collars on streamers or swing flies, and you can even strip the fibers off the stem to tie tails on nymphs and wet flies.

Comparisons

If you want full-sized Schlappen Feathers, then Hareline's Rooster Schlappen is a great choice. These full-sized Schlappen Feathers are much longer and give you a lot more feathers to tie with. However, if you're looking for a smaller webby feather, then Hareline's Hen Cape is an excellent choice. These Hen Capes are what Blane Chocklett originally used for tying his Feather Game Changers, and they provide you with a ton of feathers and feather sizes. While the Hen Cape is a bit more costly, it gives you a wider range of feather sizes so you can always find the perfect feather for the job.
