Ephemerella 0 Report post Posted March 9, 2013 never seen a Kneecap or Chinchilla. how would i find capes like this? i love variant capes Look for Indian capes or saddles. Often you'll find them. Chinchilla is basically a gray with darker gray grizzly style markings. Not much demand for Chinchilla but often found in bundled or strung hackle. If you find knee cap there are plenty of classic salmon fly tyers who use it in a few patterns as hackle. These sorts of feather colorations are not the usual fly shop fare or mail order fair. You'll need to ask for Indian capes and then paw through bins of them to get what you want. All part of the fun. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
