Product information "Whiting Silver Saddle"
The stunning Silver Rooster Saddles from Whiting are a top choice for tying dry flies – whether it's classic Adams or modern Stimulators. They boast a record-breaking quantity of feathers of varying sizes – from extremely small (down to hook size 20 and smaller) to relatively large feathers for bushy dry flies or to add flair to your streamers. Thanks to their flexible yet sturdy quills, they are very easy to work with. Additionally, their stiff fibers impart excellent buoyancy to your dry flies. Furthermore, these feathers exhibit a nearly consistent fiber length, which is advantageous, for example, when tying dense and uniform hackle collars. Apart from dry flies, these saddles are also suitable for tying streamers – for example, as the body hackle of a Wooly Bugger or to put the finishing touch on larger pike or saltwater streamers.
The Silver Saddles strike the perfect balance between quality and affordability. One feather typically covers 6-8 hook sizes (e.g., #10-18), is easy to work with, and is the right choice for 90% of fly tiers. For perfect proportioning of dry flies, one can also use a hackle gauge from Whiting, ensuring you always know which hackle matches which hook size.
In short, these stunning rooster saddles are an absolute delight for tying dry flies. Thanks to their Bronze classification, they offer unbeatable value for money. They are sure to bring a smile to the face of any passionate fly tier!
