The Ruffed Grouse has some varying types of feathers that have a wide arrangement of sizes.  You will be able to find large feathers for your favorite Stonefly or small streamer pattern, to size 18's in the neck shoulders, and some small feathers on the wings.  These feathers have some very cool and unique mottling to them, and a smaller stem or rakis than a Hungarian Partridge.  One of our favorite game birds to tie with.  Enjoy the variety and applications from your favorite soft hackles to legs on nymph patterns with this skin. 

This skin is a great alternative to Partridge and gives you a better size range.
