Gordon Griffiths Amherst Pheasant Heads Dyed 

(The heads are dyed to order, so please allow an extra 2 days for this)

A complete Amherst Pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae) head dyed the selected colour. Ideal for all your classic Salmon flies. The Amherst Pheasant feathers are stunningly beautiful and delicate. Gordon Griffiths has the widest range of colours in APHD including equivalents for the well known lime, orange, purple and red as well as exclusive Gordon Griffiths colours.

The head contains the tippets and the crest feathers. These feathers are the perfect choice for fly tying Salmon flies, Steelhead flies and some Spider flies. These tippet feathers work well as tail material on your fly or equally well as a pair of matched wings on a fully dressed Salmon fly. They can be used for creating wings and tails as well as cheeks on Pike flies due to their size and are also commonly used by being wound as hackle on Spider flies. The crest feathers are most commonly used as topping or tail material for Salmon flies.
