Yep, got whole skin though I mainly tie soft hackle patterns with the softer feathers.  You can also use them for legs on nymphs.  If a pattern calls for partridge you can use grouse.   I imagine the wing feathers would be useful for some patterns.    Jerry C "All things considered, I'd rather be in Philadelphia."   In a message dated 10/9/2006 20:52:18 PM Eastern Daylight Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: Can someone answer this question for me.Is spruce grouse or Ruffed Grouse any good for flies and if so what kind of flies.I got a load inclueding wings any help well be greatful thank dave aka scouterd e-mail:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
