Rooster and Hen Capes and Saddles – A Rich Selection of Feathers for Fly Tying

In our store, we offer a wide range of rooster and hen capes and saddles, both genetic and Indian. These are essential materials for every fly angler who values high quality and functionality in their lures. These feathers are perfect for creating wings, tails, and bodies for dry flies, wet flies, and streamers alike.

Genetic and Indian Feathers – Variety and Applications

Our selection includes both genetic feathers, known for their excellent quality, length, and durability, as well as Indian feathers, which offer more affordable solutions while maintaining good functionality.

Genetic Rooster and Hen Feathers – Perfect for Dry Flies

• Genetic capes and saddles (such as feathers from brands like Whiting, Keough, and Metz) are characterized by exceptionally long, thin, and durable feathers, making them the ideal choice for tying dry flies. These feathers are great for creating small lures, such as flies in sizes #16 - #24, providing a lightweight and natural presentation on the water.
• Genetic rooster capes also offer a wide range of colors, allowing for the adjustment of flies to the fishing conditions. Genetic saddles are indispensable for making dry flies, thanks to their long, thin, and flexible feathers that hold well on the water's surface.

Indian Feathers – A Solid Choice for Dry Flies, Wet Flies, and Streamers

• Indian capes and saddles (such as feathers from brands like FFGene and Wapsi) are an excellent choice for dry flies, as well as wet flies and streamers. Despite a more affordable price, Indian rooster capes offer high-quality feathers that are ideal for tying dry flies. With various colors and quality grades available, these feathers are perfect for building lightweight lures that float on the water's surface.
• Indian rooster and hen capes are also suitable for creating streamers and wet flies. Their softer structure allows for realistic movement of the lure in the water, effectively attracting fish.
