Please note that natural fly-tying materials will naturally vary in color, size, shape, texture, density, and overall appearance. These variations are an inherent characteristic of natural materials and should be expected from one package, batch, or individual piece to another. While we make every effort to accurately represent our products, the item you receive may differ slightly from the photographs shown.
