The extended length and consistency of each feather in the Metz Magnum Saddles are ideal for tying articulated streamers, baitfish patterns, and throaty collars. Unlike neck hackle, which provides a wider range of feather sizes from the cape, saddle hackle is sourced from a smaller area of the bird and yields longer, more uniform feathers — perfect when tying multiple flies of the same size and profile.
