UV2 Coq De Leon Perdigon Fire Tail Feath

Spirit River UV2 Coq De Leon Perdigon Fire Tail Feathers hackle feathers are special, differing from other rooster hackle feathers. The barbs of the feathers from roosters in the Leon region are translucent, long, and have a beautiful speckled pattern. From these, you can create beautiful tails and good hackles for dry flies, as well as stylish tails especially for Perdigon-style nymphs. Coq de Leon birds grow in the mountains of Spain, where the mountain climate and soil minerals make the roosters of the Leon region so special. The birds are also raised using traditional methods, where they live quite freely outdoors, becoming hardy, with only the strongest surviving the winters. Due to the aforementioned reasons, genuine CLD products are very scarce. 

These feathers have undergone Spirit River's UV2 dyeing, which enhances the materials' reflectivity of ultraviolet rays and visibility to fish. The two-part UVF+UVR dyeing affects as follows

• The UVF process, or UV Fluorescence, makes the materials fluorescent. This phenomenon is especially noticeable in bright colors, even to the human eye. 
• The UVR process, or UV Reflectance, improves the materials' ability to reflect UV rays, which are invisible to the human eye. This feature helps, for example, birds and insects to find different targets in nature.
