Salmon dry fly hackle

Recommended Posts

Does anyone sell fry fly saddles for hook sizes 10 to 6 for dry flies . I have Whitings and Metz but almost all are size 12 and smaller . Larger hackles are preferred for the big salmon dries . Any help will be appreciated . Thanks.............Frank

I'm going to stick my head up and say you don't need 'dry fly' hackles for salmon dries. I've tied plenty that will keep a #10 salmon hook afloat using a pro grade whiting cape and cheap Indian necks.
