Veniard Super Select CDC Feathers
The Natural Buoyancy for Dry Flies
CDC (Cul de Canard) is one of the most valuable natural materials in modern fly tying. Collected from the feathers surrounding a duck's preen gland, CDC naturally contains fine oils that work together with its unique fibre structure to provide exceptional buoyancy, delicate movement and an incredibly lifelike appearance on the water.
Unlike traditional rooster hackle, CDC allows flies to sit naturally in the surface film while trapping microscopic air bubbles within its fibres. The result is an exceptionally realistic presentation that perfectly imitates emerging insects, making CDC indispensable for selective trout and grayling.
Today, CDC is widely used in classic and contemporary fly patterns including the F-Fly, CDC Comparadun, CDC & Elk, Shuttlecock Emerger and Loop Wing Emerger. Its natural movement and outstanding flotation continue to make it one of the most trusted materials among fly tyers worldwide.
Selected CDC Feathers for Consistent Results
Veniard Super Select CDC Feathers are carefully selected to provide consistent feather size and reliable tying performance. Each pack contains a balanced assortment of larger and smaller feathers, allowing fly tyers to choose the ideal feather for different hook sizes and fly styles without sorting through mixed-quality materials.
The soft fibres retain the natural buoyancy and movement that make CDC famous while offering excellent control during tying. Larger feathers are ideal for full dry fly wings, whereas the smaller feathers are perfectly suited to delicate emergers, technical dry flies and smaller trout patterns.
Whether you are tying classic dry flies or modern competition patterns, Veniard Super Select CDC offers the consistency and versatility needed to produce clean, realistic flies with outstanding presentation on the water.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDATIONTake advantage of the different feather sizes included in each pack. Use the larger feathers for wings on bigger dry flies and reserve the smaller feathers for tiny emergers and technical trout patterns. Matching feather size to hook size creates cleaner, more balanced flies and reduces unnecessary trimming. |
