I did a flat wing streamer for the striper swap. Deb Duran sent me my first flat wing. The main pattern was developed by Ken Abrames step by step article can be seen at: http://flyfisherman.com/ftb/kaflatwings/index3.html or striper moon.com.
I did a basic color combination to represent a Menhaden, I do not do the pillow dubbing ball nor did I mix separate strands of deer hair to form unique color combinations. I also used imitation jungle cock plastic strips for the eyes.
 
The feathers are rooster saddle, the feathers I used I got from Whiting Farms. Byard does co-op feather swaps. We did one where we all got different colors of the flatwing rooster hackle. You could ask him for the feathers?
