This saddle delivers exactly what it promises. The density of the hackle makes the dry flies float beautifully. The bronze shade is rich and consistent with the photo. I’ve used it for several patterns and it holds up well in the water.

Highly satisfied with the quality and uniqueness of this saddle. The size fits perfectly for my medium-sized flies. The texture is firm and the color is true to the image. A must-have for serious dry fly tyers.
Eric Ogden –
The saddle performs well and the floating action is excellent. A bit on the stiff side, but that’s expected with Whiting line. The shade is a nice balance between warm and earthy.
