I lost about 150 of them when we got flooded. I still use them for the same thing I use to. Dry flies of the right size are just as good tied with and Indian cape as they are with anyother cape. It just tkaes a might more hackle to do the same thing.

They are also still good for wet flies and nymph's that require soft hackle for there legs. Lots of good uses for them out there. You just have to know how and when to use them. Ron

This Bird Flu thing has me worried as they may stop the import of them? I sure hope not as it will up the price of the ones grown here.
