These are true genetic rooster feathers, specially bred for fly tying, and selected for their high barb density, symmetrical shape, and excellent dry fly performance. They are ideal for tying precise and delicate dry flies in standard and small sizes.
Please note: due to natural behavior among roosters (fighting, movement), some feathers may have slightly broken tips, which does not affect their usability or tying quality.
Product Highlights:
- 6 premium genetic rooster saddle feathers per pack
- Sized with Tiemco Hackle Gauge (Whiting equivalent)
- Selected for dry flies only – high-quality barb density
- Perfect for small and medium dry fly patterns
- More economical and practical than full saddle purchases
- Some tips may show natural breakage (common with live birds)
We use these feathers in our own fly-tying work, and after receiving many requests from clients, we decided to make them available in economical packs. Buying a full saddle is often not practical for occasional tiers, and over time, the color and elasticity of stored saddles may degrade. This pack offers a cost-effective, fresh alternative, especially for those who tie flies in limited quantities.
