Use them the same as any other feather for the same type/size/shape. There's no specific patterns as far as trout flies are concerned, you may find a few & I do mean few trad. salmon dressings.

Stevie, make yourself a "fascinator" and wear it at the bank final

I bet they make a great marabou imitation and would be even more mobile, Steve M8

they might be good for some Grayling Flies/Nymphs being bright
