As stated, at this price get a few colors.

It also has less than desirable barb count and most of the feather must be trimmed to get a desirable hackle. Lesser grade dry fly hackles are good for parachutes but in this case the stiff stem makes it a bit tricky. Bottom line, you get what you pay for.

I have a supply of these #3's that I use for tailing....that's right these necks still have spade hackles on them. You can also use the larger hackles for wooley buggers and stripped quills. Everything is relative...go back 25 years and people would be dying for these necks. They're a good deal. Was this review helpful to you?
