Looking for a good source of hackle just for dry fly tails. I guess I need a good place to just buy spade hackle. Any recommendations would be great. Thanks

There was a thread here recently about this. Did you see it? Search online for Whiting Cd'L tailing packs. Lots of spades feathers with speckled hackles and many dyed colors. I posted a photo of some I have.
