Moshup 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2020 Capt Bob LeMay Thanks for the posting of all those beautiful flies. Iβve noticed that you must have a great source for materials as the saddles are always so full ! Β Sometime when we get back traveling again Iβll tie up a few of your examples and take them south with me. Thanks for all the southern candy ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt Bob LeMay 0 Report post Posted May 16, 2020 I must admit that feathers (and I mostly use relatively inexpensive strung saddles and neck hackles)are getting harder to find these days.... Almost all of them comes from Chinese or other oriental chickens. Β Lucky for me that Iβve been buying andΒ hanging on to them since the early eighties...Β I always ask for wide, webby full strung stuff - and a bit bigger than I actually need... It was quite moment years ago when I realized that almost any cheap feather duster had better neck hackles to make tarpon flies with than almost any high end genetic stuff... Most if the feathers I prefer would be rejected by skilled freshwater tyers Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
