In the original - the downy feathers of the African marabou ostrich, painted in different colors. At present, almost everywhere they have been replaced by turkey feathers that are in no way inferior to them. Excellent playing large down feathers. When knitting flies, they are used to make extremely mobile tails and wings of flies, in the name of which the term "marabou" is often present. Some knitters (Hans Van Klicken) practice weaving a detached body like a "pigtail" from marabou feather fibers. It is also possible to wind the fibers of this feather on the shank of the hook to form the body of the fly. Some knitters make dabbing from marabou feather fibers. Extremely fluffy in the air, these feathers shrink dramatically when wet.
At present, it is one of the most popular materials for knitting any type of flies: from sea, then freshwater, from large streamers, to small flies for catching roach. The feather barbs, which are very mobile in the water, are now even more attractive due to the striped coloring made by hand.
