Cookshill's English Partridge

[LuvSoftHackles]

I really like using Cookshill's English Partridge on my larger soft hackle patterns in imitate the large mayflies. Anyone else using English Partridge?

I like it too! I have a English Hen skin from Steve. Nice stems, decent amount of small feathers.

I should ask Steve, but does anyone see, practically, any big difference between cocks and hens in size and structure? I know there's a difference in coloration...

I have both from Steve. My hen cape is a little larger skin than the cock and the hen feathers are slightly darker than my cock cape.
