Whiting American Hackle Hen Cape - Grizzly

Regular price $35.00 USD
Shipping calculated at checkout.

Pickup available at 140 W Front St

Usually ready in 24 hours

Description

These capes feature soft, partially‑webby hen feathers with classic grizzly barring. These feathers are bred for versatility: the supple fibers and long, rounded stems make them well-suited for creating wet‑fly hackle, nymph legs, and even dry‑fly wings.

Because of their softness and webby texture, these hen capes excel in subsurface applications — their fibers absorb water and impart natural, lifelike movement to soft hackle flies.

Tiers also use them for steelhead and salmon flies, especially for tails, sides, and wing veils, where the soft, flowing grizzly feathers add subtle color contrast and gentle motion.

With consistent feather quality, natural grizzly patterning, and a wide size range, this hen cape is a reliable material for tying a broad variety of wet flies, streamers, and even modest wings.
