Materials Question
I purchased Dave Whitlock's video on tying some of his deer hair flies.
For the Diving Frog's legs, the fly requires 3 pairs of neck hackles...One each white, grizzly yellow, and grizzly olive.
I can't seem to find neck hackles in grizzly yellow and grizzly olive...I can find saddle hackles in those colors, though...
Can anyone recommend a supplier for these types of neck hackles?
Thanks.

They are only frogs - use the saddle hackle, I am sure it will wiggle and kick satisfactorily - and be a lot cheaper.

I carry both, ashbourn12@hotmail.com if you want some more info.
The problem with saddles are they are very pointy, some prefer the more rounded feathers on capes.

Thanks for the replies...I assumed the saddles would work....
But, I got very curious when I just couldn't find the necks.....But, orvis does carry them....Just had to hunt around to find them...
