Premium Dry Fly Hackle for Everyday Fly Tying
Whiting High & Dry Hackle 1/2 Cape is designed for fly tyers who want legendary Whiting Farms quality in an affordable, versatile package. It delivers excellent flotation, a broad range of hook sizes and plenty of premium feathers for tying hundreds of dry flies.
The High & Dry series bridges the gap between Whiting's classic Dry Fly capes and the Hebert-Miner line. It retains the key characteristics that have made Whiting the benchmark for dry fly hackle—thin, flexible quills, dense stiff barbs and minimal webbing—while offering outstanding value for everyday fly tying.
What is the Whiting High & Dry Hackle 1/2 Cape?
Whiting High & Dry Hackle 1/2 Cape is a half rooster neck specifically developed for tying dry flies. Its wide size range allows fly tyers to create everything from tiny mayfly imitations to larger caddisflies and traditional dry fly patterns using a single cape.
The feathers feature long, supple quills with dense, stiff barbs that wrap easily and produce clean, well-proportioned hackles with exceptional flotation. This makes the High & Dry series an excellent choice for both newer fly tyers and experienced anglers who tie dry flies on a regular basis.
The convenient 1/2 Cape format gives you enough premium hackle for hundreds of flies while allowing you to build a collection of multiple colours without purchasing several full capes.
