DEVAUX Pardo medium half-neck

Pardo feathers, at the heart of the finest flies

Coming from Pardo roosters, recognised for the quality of their fibres, it is characterised by excellent density, strong stems and remarkable consistency. This consistency allows both technical patterns and more classic models to be tied.

The fibres from the Pardo half-saddle are particularly valued for making tails. Their stiffness and sheen faithfully reproduce the tails and legs of aquatic insects. They ensure good fly durability and contribute to the stability of the fly, particularly on dry flies and emergers. Their naturally tapered profile and the regularity of the barbs facilitate the creation of precise silhouettes, even on small-sized hooks.

When fished wet, their controlled stiffness provides natural mobility, particularly appreciated in moderate to strong currents.

Thanks to the variety of feathers available on a single half-neck (spade or lanceolate feathers), this material covers a wide range of tying needs. Durable, attractive and functional, the Pardo half-neck is a premium choice for tyers looking to combine performance, tradition and consistency.
