Whiting Farms Cock de Leon (Cream Badger) Fly Tying Material Hackle Stiff fibers, the attractive, insect-like patterns unique to cock de leon, and its shimmer. This material adds a touch of atmosphere even to simple patterns. While famous for tailing, it's actually a versatile feather. ■ Usage Examples ・Parachute with long fibers 　Utilizing the length and scattering them slightly creates a good balance of buoyancy and insect-like appearance. ・Hackle for spider patterns 　A few turns provide sufficient presence. Its advantage is that it doesn't lose its shape easily underwater. ・Wing material for streamers 　Bundled, it creates a natural flashing effect. Natural without being too assertive. ・False hackle/throat 　Just a few strands add a sense of life. Its stiffness makes it easy to handle. As expected from Whiting, the fibers are well-aligned, making it easy to select. The thickness (hair volume) is also noteworthy. While often thought of as only for tails, it's a material that surprisingly gets a lot of use when you have it. We hope it will be used by those who need it.
