Default Frazzle and Bronze Mallard

Hi, I have been looking to tie some dabblers for a while, but I'm not sure where to get bumbper bronze mallrd at decent prices, i'm not bothered about quality just so long as i can tiesome dabblers, as for the body, I would like some fritz for me dabblers and bumbles, looking around i think Dave downies Frazzle stuff sounds the best but what would be the tp 5 most popular dabbler colours?

Any help would be great - Yours FTG

I got a bumper bag of bronze mallard from Cookshill. Sure, there was some of it that is less bronze or less well marked, but it's a helluvalot cheaper than Veniards where you'd pay £4 for ten medium sized feathers. 40p a feather?!

Cookshill just do feathers though so they won't sell you fritz.

As for dabbler colours, I don't fish them much, but from what I've seen I'd hazard a guess that golden olive, claret, and pearl were up there in the top 5 most popular colours.

If you're going to the BFFI, there will at least one alternative source for the b.m & you'll see plenty of different fritz's there, some of which will be on stand 42 where I'll be working.
