Blue Collar Hackle

Gave the capes a quick wash. The barbs are still a bit moist but the results look absolutely amazing. What I really like is that the hackles aren't as small (size16 and smaller) as the genetic hackles. These hackles are rather predominantly size 14 up to size 8 and larger. Perfect for Catskill dry flies!

Oh these Blue Collar Hackle capes were $15 and $20 a cape. That's the best value I've ever seen!
