In his tutorial on tying a Hornberg, Loren Williams shows a pair of perfectly shaped yellow streamer feathers that he says are from a Chinese cape. They look perfect.

With the genetic hackle producers today we are left with a complete void for such nicely shaped feathers. The closest I've come are those from a genetic hen neck. I found Whiting's to be a better shape than the Metz which are too blunt at the tip.

I'd appreciate comments.

ALSO: Where can you buy gray hackles suitable for Gray Ghosts. I've tried Light Dun but they just look too dirty.
