Re: [VFB] Magenta, Golden Badger American Hackle
So, I found the saddle in Denmark...and ordered it already. Shipping is low and fast - hopefully. Bought a grizzly Eurosaddle from Whiting, which was labeled as 'Flatwing' in the confirmation... I know the flatwings (We had a hackle swap with these as well), but in the context of Eurosaddle?

Re: [VFB] Magenta, Golden Badger American Hackle
Hi Don, They sell the 'usual stuff', like the necks, saddles, buggerpacks etc. here like in the US. Saw even spey saddles and necks. Not all colors, though. But additionally these Euro Saddles. The danish shop sells them under the whiting brand (Can do a scan, when I have them), but I know from others, that they sell 'em as Euro Saddles without the Whiting logo. But they claim, that the saddles are from the largest US breeder, and that is... G. Right now the asian flu isn't a topic here any more Rene Don Ordes wrote: Maybe they have to specially treat them for avian flu before exporting them to Europe. ?

Re: [VFB] Magenta, Golden Badger American Hackle
Rene, I have a magenta wet-fly cape and maybe a saddle (Whiting). If you are just tying a streamer or two, I can send you some matched pairs and save you all the cost of finding a cape and be charged for a piece of 1st class mail.
