Does anyone have a good source for bulk CDC from Europe? I find the quality of most CDC is meh to poor. I’m terrified of buying directly with the cost of shipping and tariffs. I’m willing to share the cost if others are interested and have a good source.
 
search for "swiss cdc" and "fulling mill cdc"

I agree these are two of the better ones. I do however feel that the Swiss CDC is superior to the Fulling Mill. The last couple bags of Fulling Mill I purchased were trash.

Yep. The Fulling Mill was quite disappointing.

I would have mentioned this but I could have sworn someone told me that they weren't selling it anymore due to supply issues. Thanks for the info!
 
I’ve been using these. They are not cheap but there is no junk at all, every feather is quality your looking for when you search thru those bulk bags of cdc feathers. The come in sm/md/lg you won’t be disappointed.

I’ve bought them. Pricey and a little difficult to locate.
 
Swiss CDC is the goods. A few years ago after striking out domestically, I found and wiped out the entire stock of the premium natural dun from some British fly shop and had it shipped to the US. No idea how a bunch of bird feathers made it through customs—don’t really care. What I’m saying is if you find a bag of quality stuff, buy 5 of em.

I can’t account for what other folks saw, but Trouthunter shows all of these in stock:

JMO. I don't have much favor with Trouthunters CDC. Maybe I got a bad pack. Polish CDC is th ebest I've seen, but it's hard to get.
