Whether you're getting ready for Opening Day by tying a box of small Wooly Buggers or just need to add some lifelike motion to your damselfly nymphs, Whiting's Chickabou Patch Feathers are hard to beat. This patch is full of small marabou plumes that are perfect for Wooly Buggers and leeches or anytime you need to add some natural movement into a fly.

Whiting dyes their Chickabou Patch Feathers in a ton of bold colors while also featuring natural hues and grizzly patterns that are perfect for pressured or clear waters, and you can turn to the Chickabou Patch Feathers whether you're tying small mummichogs for the salt or sculpins for freshwater.

Uses

With their Chickabou Patch Feathers, Whiting provides a range of different tying applications, but a few of the most common are tails and wings on streamers-especially Buggers and leeches-as well as fins on streamers like Game Changers and tails/bodies on nymphs that have a ton of movement. The feathers on the Chickabou Patch Feathers are very easy to work with and you can count on them anytime you want to bring some life to your patterns.

Comparisons

The size of the feathers and the well-cataloged patch that they come on make Whiting's Chickabou Patch Feathers pretty unique, but if you're simply looking for some marabou feathers that are on the smaller side, Hareline's Wooly Bugger Marabou Feathers are a great second choice. Like the Chickabou Patches, these feathers tend to be on the smaller side, and the main difference is that they're strung instead of on the skin-both are fine options, but you'll find more consistency in size and feather characteristics on the Chickabou Patch Feathers.
