Whiting Farms Genetic Rooster Necks-- The Best!

I'm not sure how many necks I have here, maybe 25 or so, but almost all of the are Whiting Farms. Dr. Tom Whiting has done a superlative job in breeding these chickens for fly tyers. Since I started tying at 12 yo back in he 60's, for many years we really didn't have much in the way of excellent dry fly hackle from the India necks. That's all changed today. The feather quality and count is always wonderful with these Whiting necks. Just make darn sure you store them properly in sealed Rubbermaid containers with mothballs. That way they will last a lifetime of fun!Read full review

whiting silver grade grizzly cape

Whiting is the top of the cape industry in my opinion. I know of no other cape in which the stems are so narrow and straight and long and the barbels so dense. The extra money you pay for the bronze through gold capes easily saves in the long run for the number of flies you get from a cape. Except for the adams (unless you can find cree) and other flies requiring two different color hackles it's no problem tying most flies with a single feather.Read full review

Nice dry fly hackle

Tied some flies from 12-16 using this, and pleased with the results. Much better than "bargain / kit / grab bag" hackle.
