These Whiting Farms Hen Saddles make fantastic wet fly feathers. These long narrow feathers are thinner than the similar American Hen Saddle. They have fine, sturdy quills for less breakage while tying, and the barbs are sturdy enough to stand up in fast water. Whether it’s a hen cape with narrower feathers and partially webby feathers or a hen saddle with full web, Whiting Hen feathers make perfect collars and legs for your nymphs.
