Description

Whiting Rooster Saddle from Feather Craft delivers consistent, dense hackle for dry flies. These saddles set the standard in fly tying, offering precision, performance, and versatility for trout, panfish, and even saltwater patterns.

Choose a whole saddle for an impressive range of feather sizes, typically from size 8 down to 22 or finer, and hundreds to thousands of usable feathers. Or select a half saddle for Whiting performance in a more approachable quantity and price.

We offer two grade options to meet different tying needs: Silver Grade and Bronze Grade. Silver Grade saddles are prized for their extraordinary feather count, uniformity, and long, tapered hackles that yield 812 flies per feather. Bronze Grade saddles maintain Whiting quality with slightly shorter feathers or minor natural variation, delivering outstanding value without sacrificing performance.
