The Whiting Coq De Leon Gold Grade Saddle in Grizzly Pardo is more versatile than you might think. It’s not just ideal for tying dry flies or nymphs but also an excellent choice for creating streamer ribbing, such as for sea trout patterns.
The saddle feathers are impressively long, allowing you to craft multiple flies from just one feather. Moreover, a single saddle offers a high density of individual feathers, providing ample material for tying countless favorite patterns. The Grizzly Pardo features naturally speckled feathers that look especially striking as tails on dry flies and nymphs. Additionally, they’re perfect for imitating the delicate legs and antennae of sea trout shrimp patterns. As a result, these feathers are considered a hidden gem among sea trout anglers. The quill of the long feathers is exceptionally soft, making it perfect for use as ribbing. Despite being so thin, the quill is extremely durable, ensuring patterns last a long time – a brilliant natural product that brings endless joy to the tying bench!
