Whiting Farms Brahma Rooster Cape comes exclusively from the PURE Brahma line, with no crossbreeding to artificially increase skin size. This origin produces particularly legible Silver Badger hackles, with a marked natural contrast between light fiber and dark marking. On the vice, the fibers position themselves neatly and allow even winding, useful for salmon and seatrout fly collars mounted in sizes 10 to 14. The Silver Badger base is renowned for its ability to accept dye evenly, resulting in bold colors without masking the hackle's natural pattern. This cape is chosen when fiber stability, consistency from one side to the other and the quality of the final finish take precedence over volume.
