Marabou is a turkey body feather. It has a fluid, lifelike breathing action that makes it incredibly useful. Marabou can be used for streamers, tails, bodies, throats, collars, wings, and backs. Wooly Bugger Marabou has a shorter fiber and a larger, stiffer center shaft, making it a good choice for Wooly Buggers. Strung Marabou has a longer fiber with a very fine center shaft, making it ideal for streamer wings and tailing on many streamers.
