Whiting Bronze Saddle

*NOTE: Pictures depict the actual saddles we have in stock. These pictures are taken as soon as we receive the hackle, to give you confidence in ordering the exact color you need.*

These are Bronze graded Saddles from Whiting Farms. Saddles produce long, uniform feathers that are fantastic for dry flies! Typical saddles will have feathers ranging from size #12-16, with some saddles having feathers down to a size #18. Looking for smaller feathers? Take a look at our Midge saddles, which have feathers in sizes #18-#22. 

With the stiffest, most dense barb count on the supplest of quills, the Whiting's line of saddles are the preferred choice of dry fly tiers around the world. The quality feathers from Whiting produce the best floating dry flies in the world!
