Dry Fly 1/2 Cape - bronze

Great Entry Cape

If you're like me and just looking for a good set of hackle feathers and don't want to make the investment of a full cape, this works great. Wish the packaging was a little easier to work with to pull the cape in/out, but it's not bad.

Good product, poor packaging.

Better than expected quality for a bronze label, lots of long feathers with a consistent width allowing for tying multiple flies. These half necks are great, especially for any colors less frequently used. The packaging was low quality, just a weatherproof envelope and a very thin cardboard insert (thinner than the hackle backer card). This, combined with the actions of our psycho mail lady who apparently rammed the package into our box with a toilet plunger or similar implement, left a somewhat bent-up half neck of hackle.
