High and Dry Necks

Recommended Posts

I'm sure some of you guys and bought Whiting High and Dry necks, I was looking for some info in them but the only thing I was listed was that they will tie from size 8 down to a size 18, I tie way to many fly's smaller than size 18 to put down $50.00 for that kind of neck. I did look into Saddles but I'm guessing the supply has not caught up from the hair craze from a few years ago.

Just bought a couple of saddles for Muskie flies. Dealer said they are catching up. The were half saddles, but the feathers we beautiful.

You really need to hold out for midge saddles. With several broods a year, it shouldn't take long to "catch up." I'm just not sure there was the demand for midge saddles that was once anticipated.

Any whiting dry fly quality cape will tie comfortably down to 24 at least... I have several of them, and there are plenty of feathers 20 and smaller.
