FLY TYING HACKLE- WE HAVE COME A LONG WAY
It sometime amazes me how someone figured out how to use chicken feathers to float a fly on the water. We have come a long way since then.
We are glad to answer your questions about the use or selection of fly tying hackle.
Fly tying hackle come in feathers used for:
- Dry fly hackles
- Wet flies
- Nymphs
Key Differences:
- The feathers on a dry fly hackle skin have stiff barbs that cause a fly to rest on the surface of the water.
- Hackles used for wet flies and nymphs are softer and have web which when folded back over the body of the fly makes the fly appear to have life.Â
- We also carry a line of capes bred special for use in the tying of classic feather wing streamer from Whiting Farms called American Hackle.
