Product information "Whiting Bronze Midge Saddle"

The saddles from Whiting are a top-tier choice for tying dry flies – whether you're tying classic Adams or modern Stimulators. They impress with a record-breaking number of feathers in various sizes – from extremely small (down to hook size 20 and smaller) to relatively large feathers for bushy dry flies or for adding flair to your streamers. Thanks to their flexible yet sturdy quills, they are very easy to work with. In addition, their stiff barbs give your dry flies excellent floatation. These feathers also stand out for their almost uniform barb length, which is a major advantage when tying dense and consistent hackle collars.

Besides dry flies, these saddles are also great for tying streamers – for example, as body hackle on a Woolly Bugger or to add the finishing touch to larger pike or saltwater streamers. The Whiting Pro Grade Saddles are probably the highest quality feathers on the market, and you can be sure that every single feather in a saddle can be used for a wide variety of fly patterns – tying becomes a real pleasure!

The Whiting Bronze Midge Saddles feature the shortest barb lengths among the feathers and are especially beneficial for small flies. As the name suggests, the Midge Saddles are perfect for tying excellent midges – down to hook size #26 and smaller! Besides dry flies, these feathers are also commonly used as lateral lines in streamers, such as a Tobias fish for coastal fishing.

In short: These stunning rooster saddles are an absolute dream for tying dry flies. Thanks to their Bronze grading, they offer unbeatable value for money.
