These are three "Royal Coachman" that I tied from feathers that were clamped in the radiator of our car one day when my girlfriend had been out driving. Part of a wing and a foot sat there too, so it was not a very nice job to get those feathers, but I take my flytying material wherever I can find it. I also have a squirrel- and foxtail that I have taken from roadkills I have passed.
The Royal Coachman is a classic fly, and very good in the river Ljusnan where I fish. The fishing season is over for this year. I guess the flytying season begins...
