On the Jungle Cock Cape, usually the front half (or so) are the much desired eyes, the feathers that are famously used on so many classic salmon flies. The rear half of the cape is made up of the spade feathers. Beautiful plumes that have the distinctive white borders and white strip running down the center. They have historically been used on very classic streamer patterns as "cheeks". Many tube tyers are now using them as cheeks on tubes for steelhead as well as salt water patterns. We often use them with the Jungle Cock eyes to make a stunning "cheek" to our tubes!
