The Whiting Farms Hen Saddle is a must-have for fly tyers looking for high-quality, versatile feathers. Derived from the lumbar region of the hen, the hen saddle offers longer, softer feathers than capes, ideal for a wide variety of tying applications. These feathers are perfect for hackles on drowned flies and streamers, as they provide an even, dense wrap that closely mimics natural movements in the water. They are also used for the legs and tails of nymphs, offering ideal action and texture to attract fish. Whiting Farms Hen Saddle is renowned for its durability and the beauty of its feathers, making it a preferred choice for professional and amateur fly tyers alike.
