    Every feather on the turkey can be used to make effective flies, but the most popular are the tail and wing feathers.

    I noticed some really colorful breast feathers, almost change colors , depending how you turned them. Thought they would look good .

    Mikastorm,
         Nohing says you can't experiment.  You may be the one who invents the next "perfect" fly.   Sounds like the feathers might make good wings on a larger wet nymph.
