Whiting 100 Pack Genetic Saddle Hackle
Genetic Hackle – The Benchmark for Dry Fly Tying
Modern genetic hackle has transformed dry fly tying. Through decades of selective breeding, Whiting Farms has developed birds that produce exceptionally long, uniform feathers with fine stems, stiff barbs and remarkable consistency.
Compared to traditional rooster hackle, genetic feathers provide superior flotation, cleaner wraps and a much higher percentage of usable feathers. Their consistent fibre length allows fly tyers to create balanced, durable dry flies with professional results every time.
Today, Whiting Farms is widely regarded as the global benchmark for genetic dry fly hackle, trusted by professional fly tyers, commercial producers and anglers around the world.
What is the Whiting 100 Pack?
The Whiting 100 Pack is one of the most popular products in the Whiting Farms range. Instead of purchasing a full saddle, each pack contains carefully selected feathers sized specifically for one hook size.
Every package includes enough premium genetic saddle hackle to tie approximately 100 dry flies. The feathers are selected from premium Whiting saddles and offer long feather length, thin stems and highly consistent barb density, making them ideal for tying large batches of identical flies.
The Whiting 100 Pack is the perfect solution for fly tyers who primarily fish one or two hook sizes and want premium genetic hackle without purchasing an entire saddle.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDATIONIf you regularly tie dry flies in one or two hook sizes, the Whiting 100 Pack is one of the smartest investments you can make. Every feather is already matched to the intended hook size, saving time and reducing waste. If you tie across a wide range of hook sizes, however, a full Whiting Saddle or Cape will offer greater versatility. |
