It’s the newest thing for all around dry and wet fly
tying! Long standing, the Coq de Leon feather is the best natural dry fly
tailing feather available, but did you know the Coq de Leon Hen feather has
bustard-like mottling perfect for wet fly tying and legging on nymphs? Give it a
try! Whiting Farms is the only breeder of Coq de Leon with original bird stock
from the Leon district of Spain.
The soft hackle with Chick-a-Bou® product is
one of the most versatile products Whiting Farms produces. More fly types can be
tied with this product than any other feather product we offer. The marabou-like
feathers of the Chick-a-Bou® patch are quite fine and delicate,
perfect for small nymphs, gills, trailing shucks, damsels and more. The soft
hackle feathers have a wide use for streamers, matukas, sculpins and larger
nymphs. If it isn’t a dry fly, it could be tied with Whiting Farms’ Soft Hackle
with Chick-a-Bou®! This is a must-have in any fly tier’s material
arsenal.
