Love that light barred ginger. Would be perfect for pmd's or sulphers

The latest issue of FF&FT has a review of Whiting BBBB Greenwell hen capes. The reviewer writes that while there are some Greenwell fly size feathers; most of the other feathers are too large.

John,
The two hen capes you show above are absolutely gorgeous! I tie a favored flymph called a "Tan Flymph" which uses the hackles you feature on the left hand cape. I am slobbering over them both! A great score indeed!
