JMC Bronze Mallard
The Classic Wings for Salmon Flies
JMC Bronze Mallard features carefully selected Bronze Mallard feathers, prized by fly tyers for their elegant shape, rich natural bronze sheen and strong, well-aligned fibres. For generations, these feathers have been one of the defining materials used in classic salmon and traditional trout flies.
Their firm structure makes them ideal for creating perfectly matched wings, overwings, tails and other classic fly-tying elements where symmetry and clean profiles are essential. The fibres retain their shape exceptionally well, allowing beautifully balanced wings that perform as well as they look.
Although best known for traditional salmon flies, Bronze Mallard is equally useful for wet flies, dry flies and nymphs, where it can be used for wings, wing cases, tails and legs. Its timeless appearance and versatility have secured its place as one of the essential natural materials in traditional fly tying.
