Jungle cock nails - Dryrod - 08-16-2008 [font "Garamond"][#008000][size 4]Was looking at a pattern called Autumn Sunset which required one jungle cock nail eye. Do you know that a package of 10 costs $10.75? Wow does a guarantee that one will catch fish come with it?[/size][/#008000][/font] [center][inline jcn.jpg] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Jungle cock nails - tubeN2 - 08-17-2008 I bet those would work on a pattern for Peacock Bass. They love to eat small birds.[cool] [signature] Re: [Dryrod] Jungle cock nails - flygoddess - 08-19-2008 Jungle Cock is EXPENSIVE! and hard to get good looking feathers. There is a plastic imitation, but I don't care for them. I read in a magazine once, a little gold paint like for material paint, and Starling feathers...comes real close! Jungle Cock is used allot in Salmon Flies.

Seems like a lot of work particularly if one never gets to use any.[/size][/#008000][/font] [signature]
