I got some super kewl new hackle in the mail for *FREE* yesterday. It was a pack of size 14 Whiting 100s in Honey Dun. This is the most awesome color I have ever seen for sulphurs and other light colored mayflies. BTW would these feathers tie a #16 parachute well becuase I have heard that they are sized a tad smaller or something. BUT definately check out this color. It is too kewl!

"GET THE DRIFT?"
Hi Mike , I totally agree with you about the color, beautiful stuff, unfortunately they are discontinuing that color being offered in 100 packs.
Take care, Jim

Mike- This is how I size hackle for parachute flies. (I take it you tie your own) Put a post on the size of hook that you are going to tie on and whip finish your thread and leave the hook in your vise. Now wrap the hackle around the post one time and if it hits right were the tail and body meet you have the right size of hackle for a parachute fly of that size. When you are done sizing hackle for the ammount of flies that you are going to tie just tie the first one on the hook in the vise. Hope that helps a little. Ron
