A very distinguished looking tie Izaak.
I hate it when I think I'm buying organic vegetables, and when I get home I discover they are just regular donuts.

Beautiful fly there Izaak. I have been looking for a blue dun hen for almost a year now. I have a dry fly blue dun, but no hen. :(

Kelly,
You might check here. I too have been looking for a blue den hen, and I think I have found it here. I will likely be buying one after Christmas. I bought a Greenwell's hen neck from this source and was well satisfied.

If you scroll down a bit, you will find a wide selection of hen hackle.

For wet fly (and dry fly) hackle, why not patronize our own Jim Slattery at Jims Fly Co.? He has what may be the best selection of necks in the US and being a wet fly tier of remarkable skill and experience he can help you choose exactly what you want. http://www.jimsflyco.com
